Caveats
Installing PyMol 0.98 on WinXP Pro SP2
If you get the following error while installing
"16-bit Windows Subsystem.": "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.
Sounds like the AUTOEXEC.NT file is corrupt. You can fix this problem by replacing
c:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\AUTOEXEC.NT
with the one in
c:\windows\repair
However if this doesn't work (or if the file is absent from this repair folder), use the file on the installation CDROM, it is
autoexec.nt_
in the i386 folder. Just type in a command window:
expand X:\i386\autoexec.nt_ c:\windows\system32\autoexec.nt
where X is the drive letter of your CDROM.
