The error message you posted is incomplete.
It seems that you are running Windows2000/XP and your c:\windows\system32\autoexec.nt file is corrupted and can not serve running 16-bit applicatins, like the ones you probably have on that CD.
You could try copying the autoexec.nt backup form c:\windows\repair\ over the corrupted one in system32. Mind that on Windows2000 the windows directory is c:\winnt
