    Windows XP SP2 problems

    Windows XP brought me some problems:

    1) Whenever installing a DOS based new software, executing SETUP returns the following error:

    C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\AUTOEXEC.NT. The system file is not suitable to execute MS-DOS and MS Windows utilities. Choose "CLOSE" to conclude the installation.

    I couldn't correct this.

    2) After installation of SP2 I couldn't install Critical update for Office XP in the Windows XP Service Pack 2 (KB885884).
    How to correct this?

    Any idea to help me?

    Thanks

    Hi ALL,

    For a while the MS clue solved my problem.
    However, after a reboot, I noted that the AUTOEXEC.NT file, I've created with this MS support info, was deleted.
    Does anybody knows what is happening? What makes this file vanish from my machine?
    I have to create a AUT|OEXEC.NT everytime I need to install a program based on DOS...

    Txs,
    Seemefe
