<<<< Recently, when my kids try to play some of their games, they get this message:
     16 bit Window Subsystem
      C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEMS32\AUTOEXEC.NT.  The system file is not suitable for
running MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows applications.
We then have the options to cancel the application or ignore it.  No matter what
we choose, the games will not run.  A month ago, these games ran fine.  Can
anyone help me with this?>>>>

It appears that the "autoexe.nt" file has somehow been corrupted.

The following microsoft knowledge base article should help. (item 3 of the "symtoms" )

But the fix seems to be a longwinded one.

Good luck----Venkat Viswanathan
