to stop ppl spammin thought id post the solution to the error for people wen trying to install dbcommander and a box comes up saying tht sumtin in system 32 file wont let em this is it....

Double click "My Computer" then your hard drive (probably C drive) and open
the "WINDOWS" folder.

Open "SYSTEM32" and see if the "AUTOEXEC.NT" file is in there. Chances are
it isn't. If it is, then it's probably corrupt. Arrow up or hit "Back" to
return to the main WINDOWS folder.

Go down to "Repair" and double click. You should find "autoexec.nt" and
"config.nt" in there. Copy these files (Ctrl+C) then go back to SYSTEM32 and
paste them there (Ctrl+V). It will ask you if you want to replace the old
one-click "Yes".

That should do it. Now try installing that program and it should work fine.


also could sum1 make this sticky so tht people dont spam for this problem agen

it is already there under the Micro$oft link on how to fix it
its just 99% of people try the quick fix and when that does not work (as they installed it wrong) they post looking for help

copied from the Micro$oft page on how to fix the error

1. Click Start, click Run, type c:\windows\repair, and then click OK.
2. Right-click autoexec.nt, and then click Copy.
3. Click Start, click Run, type c:\windows\system32, and then click OK.
4. Right-click anywhere in that folder, and then click Paste.
5. Right-click the Autoexect.nt file that you just copied, and then click Properties.
6. Click to select Read-Only, and then click OK.
7. Repeat steps 1 through 6 to copy the Config.nt file.
Note You must enable Read-Only permissions or the files will be removed after you restart Windows.
