16 bit Windows Subsystem error occurs after installing SP2 so all u have to do is downlaod the autoexec.nt and config.nt file from the Net(search google) and put it in the system 32 folder that all this should solve the problem

16 bit windows Subsystem
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\AUTOEXEC.NT. The system file is not suitable for running MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows applications. Choose "Close"to terminate the program

this is the error message i get when i try to install
a software. there was no problem earlier in installing the same.
my system config is winxp pro sp2.

this is where i got stuck some time back,
:-just check your repair folder in your windows directory, you will find the file autoexec.nt in it, just copy it to your system32 folder and your problem should be solved.
