Program won,t load under XP

Hi,
I just tried to load a data program on a computer running XP pro and I get a box on the screen
16bit windows sub system
C:\windows\system32\autoexc.NT The system file is not suitable for running MS-Dos and Microsoft Windows applications.Chose close to terminate the application. The same program loads onto another computer running XP Pro

Regards
Graeme
