Installation Diskettes
Three installation diskettes are required to install Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 on
your server. Follow these steps to create these installation diskettes:
1. Locate three blank, formatted 3.5" diskettes.
2. Insert your Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 CD-ROM into a desktop PC.
3. From a DOS prompt, type:
C:\D:\i386\winnt32 /ox
(where D is the drive letter for the CD-ROM)
4. Follow the prompt and insert the diskettes in the order described.
Section 3. Perform Windows NT Installation
The installation of Windows NT contains several phases:
• Phase 1 – Driver(s) Installation
• Phase 2 – Hard Drive Preparation
• Phase 3 – System Configuration Details
• Phase 4 – Configuring the Network
• Phase 5 – Completing the Installation
• Phase 6 – Install the Service Pack
• Phase 7 – Install the HP Video Driver
NOTE
Do not try to install Windows NT 4.0 via booting from the
Windows NT CD-ROM. This method of installation does not
work properly on most servers. The installation procedure will
prompt you to insert the Windows NT CD-ROM at a later
time.
