16 Bit MS-DOS Subsystem
Posted by Ignis on December 4th, 2005


When I run certain exes, the follow error message appears:

16 Bit MS-DOS Subsystem
The system file is not suitable for running Windows and MS-DOS applications.

in the past, I have been able to run this exe.

What's happened?
Thanks in advance.

I found this by google-ing the error message that you got. You can do this
too.
