[Huzefa]

thanx anna_don

\Worked fine and the ms-dos subsystem is up and running fine. DO you know how this problem was caused in the first place >>> ??

Thanks once again

If any one else has this problem try this out and Hope it works

Go to Windows subdirectory repair , ie C:\WINDOWS\repair , and just copy the .nt files , ie *.nt to the C:\WINDOWS\system32 directory. It should work out.

But jsut to be on the safe side , Does anyone know how this problem could be caused in the first place ??

no sweat huzefa

and i've been wonderin y the problem occured in the first place too

ideas any1?

 

[expertno.1]

the problem might be caused to some incompatible software insatllations that made modification in the nt files

also some tweaks if u have done might be responsible for the error

any could be the problem?????

This is a very common problem. The solution you gave is correct, but one important step is missing.

After copying the *.nt file to \System32, you have to make them read-only. Otherwise, the problem reappears again and again.

Yes, expertno.1 is right.
