I wasnt sure where to put this but there seems to be an error when i keep trying to update 3dsmax 4 to 4.2. I have contacted discreet but they cant help me. So I want to try asking it here.

The Error says

Code:
16 bit Windows Subsystem
Code:
C:\Windows\SYSTEM32\AUTOEXEC.NT. The system file is not suitable for running MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows applications. Choose 'Close' to terminate the application.


After that I pressed close and the program shuts down. I made sure 3dsmax 4 was off. Does this have to do with the computer I have ? I tried to do this on my brothers computer and it worked perfectly. If anyone could help i'd really appreciate it alot.

The easiest solution is simply inserting the Windows XP CD into the CD drive and clicking start --> Run and entering:

expand X:\i386\autoexec.nt_ c:\windows\system32\autoexec.nt

Replace X:\ with your CD ROM drive letter.
