This build is mentioned in Microsoft antitrust document PX01251. No exact build number is given, though the document states the following about this build:

  • SYSTEM.DRV - Setup problem on DOS 3.1 - Bug #14863
  • EGAOEM.FON - change resolution to 72*96, font mapping problem for terminal font
  • VGAOEM.FON - change resolution to 96*96, font mapping problem for terminal font
  • WIN386.EXE - Bug #14413, invalid VxD dynamic link call
  • ScreenSavers - Change font from HELV to MS SSERIF
  • SMALL*.FON - mark as 3.0 compat
  • DRIVERS.CPL - MMBug #6149, prompts to reboot if driver is already present
  • GDI.EXE - WinProj 1.0 divide by zero trashes Windows
  • *.HLP - Recompiled with the new HC.EXE
  • KRNL286 and 386 - Bug #14975, DBWin crash w/output to COM1 at app exit; #14976, exit Windows after app exit, DBWin


Both RC3 and RC3a are mentioned, so it is unknown whether these refer to the same build or if RC3a is merely a recompile of RC3.
