That wont work as all files used for Windows XP Installation are compressed.
I am getting this exact message while trying to install AVG Anti Virus (any version). I think the problem is that neither you nor I have Autoexec.nt because I cant find it on my computer either... So needless to say that would possibly be the file you would be looking at extracting.
To do so you put in the Windows XP cd rom and do the following.
Click Start > click Run (then copy and paste the following)
code:
expand %cdrom%:\i386\autoexec.nt_ c:\windows\system32\autoexec.nt
Now where
%cdrom% is you want to replace it with the drive letter where the cd is. For instance If you have 1 hard drive and 1 CD Rom drive, normally your CD Rom drive is the D Drive.
After doing this I was able to run the AVG Installation (did this just as I was posting)
Now if your applications you are trying to run are 16Bit you might have to run the Windows Compatibility Wizard so that it will run the proper file allowing Windows to use it. (the file is wowexec.exe if anyone cares)
