Solution 1:

The error is the result of the path variable being incorrectly set. Check
that %SystemRoot%\system32 is properly added to your PATH.
For example: C:\WINNT\system32



Solution 2:

For win95 or win98, also check the PATH variable is point to
the correct directory and is seen.
(to fndtn/bin/nt).
