OK Guys, Had a job interview early monday morning, just got home today, went to sim my TNM cards, and boom. Can't open the d**n thing. It seems to be a compatibility issue with Windows, which I never had before. Here's the error, any ideas?

"The System file is not suitable for running MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows applications. Choose 'Close' to terminate the application.

Can you open it through the DOS prompt, or is that not working either?

Have you made any changes at all to anything since last running it?

Besides installing Battlefield 1942, No

Maybe a system file got changed during the Battlefired 1492 install. You could try the system restore function that Windows has.

Yep, didn't work. Seems like my dos prompt isn't working correctly with TNM7. Any other ideas?

Try DosBox. It's a DOS emulator program. Perhaps it'll work better than the Windows DOS Emulator.

Good luck.
