SYMPTOMS
When you upgrade to Windows NT version 3.5 without using floppy disks on a COMPAQ DESKPRO XL series computer, the following STOP message may appear:
This message appears when you attempt to install Windows NT with the /b parameter and you specify the COMPAQ SSD driver disk (SSD v1.12 - SP0925.EXE) for the computer components.
WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, do not use the /b parameter when you install Windows NT version 3.5 from a server. Run WINNT.EXE or WINNT32.EXE without any parameters; this requires three blank, formatted floppy disks.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT version 3.5. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
The Compaq products discussed here are manufactured by Compaq Computer Corp., a vendor independent of Microsoft; we make no warranty, implied or otherwise, regarding these products' performance or reliability.
