SYMPTOMS
When you run Windows NT 3.1 on a Siemens PCE-5s (P90/100) computer, error messages may occasionally appear indicating certain files are corrupt and unusable.

This problem can occur when you access files on a Windows NT file system (NTFS) formatted drive. Running CHKDSK may not report or correct the problem.



CAUSE
Windows NT 3.1 has not been tested with these computer models. They are therefore not on the Windows NT 3.1 Hardware Compatibility List (HCL).

Windows NT 3.1 requires modifications to the Windows NT kernel in order to work reliably with these computers.



RESOLUTION
Upgrade to Windows NT version 3.5 or obtain the fix mentioned below.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT version 3.1. A fix to this problem is in development, but has not been regression-tested and may be destabilizing in production environments. Microsoft does not recommend implementing this fix at this time. Contact Microsoft Product Support Services for more information on the availability of this fix.

This problem was corrected in Windows NT version 3.5.
