Clarification of Question by jim47-ga on 23 Mar 2005 22:52 PST

TO ADD TO THE CONFUSION I AM NOW GETTING THIS MESSAGE.

C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\AUTOEXEC.NT.
The system file is not suitable for running MS-DOS and Microsoft
Windows Applications.
Choose 'close' to terminate the application.

I have uninstalled  WORKS and tried to reinstall.  The CD Rom does not
run. It runs on every other software. I have a copy of the original CD
and it doesn't run either.

What is going on? I have done a system restore. Now what?

Dirty or scratched CD?

Best

hi jim47!

- did you use this soft on a winxp before? if do, then make a restore
of the Registry to a date where you know it works!
- did you try to install it on a win9x or winme?
- there is a setver program that allows you to "lie" to the soft about
the operating system version.. ;)

hope you can solve you problem,
Emiliano.
