spitoon Posted May 26, 2005 Share Posted May 26, 2005 Wow, that's a new one for me. What OS are you running? I've only tested it on XP. From what I've been able to gather, I think it works on ME as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spitoon Posted May 26, 2005 Share Posted May 26, 2005 Taken from a google search: Most times this error can be resolved by copying the file "autoexec.nt" from C:WINDOWSREPAIR to C:WINDOWSSYSTEM32. (note: you may have to adjust your folder view to show hidden/system files) If that doesn't do the trick see; http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=324767 Frequently this problem crops up as a result of changes made by ad/spy/malware so you may want to consider doing some system maintenance.
