Have tried this on two different computers this week -- I get this error when Express Scribe is trying to start -- just a black screen with this error

 

C:/docume 1/hp_owner/local temp/essetup.exe

16 bit MS-DOS subsystem

The NTVDM CPU has encountered an illegal instruction

 

CS 1375IP1f19OP:f0 05 71 ff00

 

Chose close to terminate application.

 

Help.

 

I've been at this 8 hours now and other then a few things I've seen about 12-bit systems, I cannot

figure this out.

Sounds like a trojan on your machine. These two are known for causing this:

 

TROJ_VUNDO.ATK

TROJ_AGENT.TPM

 

Clean out your temp files, internet cache, cookies, etc., and run a really good virus scan. And more than likely the two computers you have tried it on were networked, right? Which means you need to run a virus scan on every computer in your network.
