SYMPTOMS
When installing Windows NT 3.5 on an DEC Alpha 2100 computer, a STOP message (0x0000008B) appears and states that the system might be infected with a virus.
CAUSE
The message about the virus is misleading. The STOP message appears if more than one hard drive is present, and the drives have not been partitioned or formatted.
RESOLUTION
In addition to setting up the partitions and formatting the first drive, either format the additional drives with ARCINST or remove them until after Windows NT installs.
