problems installing visual studio 6.0

I received the disk from my school (ITT). It is supposed to give me assisstance in my "Intro to Comp Programming"class (don't laugh..I'm just getting started in this whole computer game). When I go to download it, a 16-bit Window Subsystem pops up, stating "C:..WINDOWS..SYSTEM32..AUTOEXEC.NT. The system file is not suitable for running MS-DOS and microsoft Windows applications." I was wondering if any of you have any insight on this. I could drive to ITT and ask them, but i figure there are people who know much more about computers than the teachers at ITT. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Are you clicking on anything to begin the installation or does it start automatically when you put the disk in. If so What is the name of the file your click ing on
