The fix that most people suggest does not work for me.

I am trying to install the Microsoft C++ visual 6.0
This is what i have tried inputting into the cmd and here are some of the outputs. I am unsure why it cannot find it since I have searched and it is there

try doing it from the root c directory, c:\

Change the E:\ to a C:\ ? I tried that and it gave me the same thing
Should I put the CD-ROM in it? I have tried with and without and neither ways work.

try that file and reboot

This installation program will reinstall the missing or corrupt Windows XP system files command.com, autoexec.nt and config.nt. The absence or corruption of one or more of these files causes a "16 Bit Subsystem" error.

You have possible spyware that could be deleting these files

Running Audit on my computer showed that a program called
WINDUPDATE.EXE (not WINUPDATE.EXE) was deleting my Autoexec.nt file on boot
up. If I replaced the file it would delete it again. Go to \Program
Files\WINDUPDATE folder and delete it!

Go to your registry and delete anything named WINDUPDATE. Put the Autoexec.nt
file back into your \system32 folder and all is well! This was definately the
problem here and I bet most everyone has the same nasty bugger, WINDUPDATE.EXE
on their infected computer.

Thanks for the file!!!! I didn't find any WINUPDATE.EXE anywhere in my system but, I ran it anyway and it fixed it. Wish I would've seen this months ago. Coulda saved a ton of headaches.
