Help me please! I made a PPT presentation and used Pack n Go. I made a slide
show of my daughter's kindergarten class and wanted the other kids in the
class to be able to view it. Put the files needed onto a CD. Tried playing
it on another computer and got this error message:
C:/WINDOWS/SYSTEM32/AUTOEXEC.NT The system is not suitable for running
MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows application. Choose 'Close' to terminate the
application. HELP!! It works fine on my computer but not on the other one.
Someone help! Any ideas?

Likely a malware issue on the target PC. Copy the "AUTOEXEC.NT" from
C:\Windows\repair folder to C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32 folder and try again.

You may need to change Folder Option, View, to show hidden files and
folders.

C:\Windows\repair

Should I be nervous doing this? Can anything bad happen? Do you think it will
work?

Hi! It seems to kinda of work. Now the presentation starts and the music
plays but then the screen goes blank and then after a while it starts up
again. The slides are not moving as they are supposed to. Then it goes blank.
Any ideas?

See the first part of my original reply? About the "malware"? I would
say that you have more problems than just the "autoexec.nt" file
missing. You will be wanting to do some serious scanning on that PC. Ad
-Aware SE and Spybot S&D are a couple free programs to help clean up the
machine.

Where can I get these programs? Should I run both of them? (Thanks for
helping me)
