16 bit windows subsytem
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\AUTOEXE.NT. The system file is not suitable for running ms-dos and microsoft windows application

im stuned...ive been runnin this game for 2 yrs now on my xp and the guys from epirate.net are telling me its just old of a game to run on xp but everyone i play with pretty much runs it on xp..any ideas of a fix? plz..i love this game.......thnx guys, again great site

 

Try to install and play the game in compatibility mode.

Right click the games install executable, select properties, compatibility, and select the operating system most appropriate. That way it should hopefully give you a much more accurate install.

If it installs, go to the games folder, and right click the games executable and do the same thing.

 

tnx man.......didnt have to i found a link on the net.....apparently my autoexec.nt file went missing so here it is if u get any other with this prob
