Windows NT 5.0 Blue Screen of Death

Post by Brandon Sky »

When I try to install Windows Cairo NT 5.0 Build 1743 in Virtualbox, i get a BSOD. When I set the type to Windows NT 4, it freezes at a blank blue screen, and then the VM crashes. The Blue screen appears after the CD drivers are loaded. Here's the BSOD:

How to avoid getting your hard work leaked:
step 1: sell CDs of your work
step 2: wait for someone to copy the disc and offer iso's.
step 3: Once someone finds an iso, they will put it on FTP.

I found it works if I install Windows NT 4, then upgrade to NT 5. I think that is the only way for betas to work in virtual box. Also, if you get a stop message, restarting the vm should fix it.

That didn't work either. I either get an ntoskrnl.exe error or another BSOD.

As a final conclusion, if you don't know anything to help me fix this issue, then this build of NT is incompatible with VBox.

Build 1877 worked this way, but I couldn't get Guest Additions to work.

this build is very tricky to install, use Qemu for it.

It's not Cairo. It's NT 5.0. ;)

Of NT 4.0 not NT 5.0 (known also as Windows 2000), where its codename is Memphis NT.
