The easiest is simply inserting the Windows XP CD into the CD drive and clicking start --> Run and entering:
expand X:\i386\autoexec.nt_ c:\windows\system32\autoexec.nt
Replace X:\ with your CD ROM drive letter.
Microsoft has this resolution in their support link:

Pls check the Game's help or read me file. It probably is not meant for XP. Moreover many Games r developed in DOS Environment and XP/2K has limited support for DOS. I am sure this game will work in Win 98.
16 bit screen error can be removed by changinh the screen resolution settings to 32 bits or higher, but since u r also getting a Ms Dos error, i don't think tis game is meant for XP.

some old games are created for the 16 bit platform. XP is using a 32 bit platform so may not be able to support that game properly. i encountered this problem several times. believe me, it'll work perfectly under windows98..
