That link was great, thank you Dave. I have tried the steps it tells you to
take but this error message is coming up in cmd.
Destination is not a directory c:\windows\system32\config.nt.  It does this
for Autoexec.nt and command.com

any suggestions???

I also cannot find %SYSTEMROOT%\system32.  I've looked in WINNT and system32.

I've tried this link, three times.... not working.
The article states it applies to Windows XP Professional and Home Edition. 
I'm running Windowx 2000 Professional.  Any other suggestions as to why its
not working?
