I have Windows XP. A few days ago I did something on my PC, since than I
can't run any more 16 bit and MS-DOS programs .
When I try to run them I receive a message :

16 bit Windows Subsystem.
C:\WINDOWS|SYSTEM32|AUTOEXEC.NT. The system file is not suitable for running
MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows applications. Chose 'Close' to terminate the
application.
And than I have an option to click 'Close' and 'Ignore' buttons. Both
buttons close the application.
I checked for 'AUTOEXEC.NT' and that file doesn't exist on my PC.
I have installed many Education programs in 16 bit for my kids. Now can't
run them. Please tell me how to fix my problem.
Thank You in advance.
