Or BGTutu might save you some trouble if you have BG2 and that works.

thnx, I'll try it.

And I am waiting to buy BGII again.

There is no such file in my system32 folder.
Howeverm in a folder named I386 and one named repair both have a autoexec.nt file. are these what you mean?

Could be. But, IIRC, that file has to be in /windows/system32, so try copying it there. If its missing, that could explain why its 'not suitable for running MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows applications'

Thanks a lot, that cleared it all up.

My problem has reoccured, but this time there is an autoexec.nt file in the folder.

Check the code. Has it been modified?

no it is the same
