Unable to install programs

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.help_and_support (More info?)

My computer has just started giving me this message when I try to install any
program. ''c/windows.system32/aoutoexec.nt. The system file is not suitable
for running MS-DOS and Microsoft windows applications.''
Could anyone please give me advise on how to rectify.

Thanks

John
