Error message when you install or start an MS-DOS or 16-bit Windows-based program on Windows XP

This helped to solve a problem on my Windows XP home with installation of TOEFL POWERPREP software

At the command prompt, type the following commands, pressing ENTER after each command:

expand CD-ROM Drive Letter:\i386\config.nt_ c:\windows\system32\config.nt
expand CD-ROM Drive Letter:\i386\autoexec.nt_ c:\windows\system32\autoexec.nt
expand CD-ROM Drive Letter:\i386\command.co_ c:\windows\system32\command.com
exit
