Apparently its a microsoft bug again..
Look around on the M$ site for a fix.
I think some smart hacker who knows all the bugs and holes in windows must have done this..

Copied from <a href="

When I try to start <a href="
http://www.solitairecity.com/">Solitaire City</a>, Windows XP gives me an error about "16 BIT WINDOWS SUBSYSTEM" and "AUTOEXEC.NT"
It appears that the "autoexec.nt" file might be missing from your "c:\windows\system32" folder. I'm not sure why this might suddenly occur after years of problem free Solitaire City play. Maybe there's a virus floating around that deletes the file. Anyway, you need to reinstall this file from your Windows XP Setup CD:
1. Insert your Windows XP Setup CD into the CD drive or DVD drive.
2. Click Start, and then click Run.
3. In the Open box, type cmd, and then click OK.
4. At the command prompt, type the following commands, pressing ENTER after each command:
expand D:\i386\config.nt_ c:\windows\system32\config.nt
expand D:\i386\autoexec.nt_ c:\windows\system32\autoexec.nt
expand D:\i386\command.co_ c:\windows\system32\command.com
exit
Please replace D: with your CD's drive letter. This should restore the missing files on your computer and Solitaire City should then work again.
If the little suckers are deleted again then you can try making the above files Read-only by right clicking on each one and selecting Properties from the pop-up menu.
Microsoft has an article in their <a href="
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=324767">Knowledge Base</a> about this problem if you need further information.
Don't know if that works, I've never had this problem, but it's probably worth trying. Good luck
