This article would be of interest to you http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/ee767578.aspx but you must be running a very OLD version of Citrix. However your scenario seems to be a 16bit app which should be run in Windows 7 XP Mode (see the article)MCSE, MCSA, MCDST

Hi,C:windows/system32/ntio.sys, is a valid Microsoft windows application that is simply telling you that theres a missing component in what you are downloading, just like itunes needs to be installed and comes with real player, if you uninstall realplayer, itunes will not work for you, same with Citrix Proram neighbourhood.I hope you have followed the instruction exactly during the installation. You may have to find out what these missing components are and install them first.Aslo type: "SFC /Scannow" (without quotations) from start, this may replace related system files.

I agree with cdobbs, the Citrix program seems to be a 16bit application, it is recommended to execute in Windows XP mode. For references on troubleshooting MS-DOS based programs:Troubleshooting MS-DOS-based programs in Windows XPBest RegardsDale

My PC is a Dell Optiplex 755 which doesn't have the Virtualization option in BIOS. I've enabled what I can but still get an error. Therefore I cannot run XP mode!
