SYMPTOMS
If you run WINNT.EXE and SMARTDrive (SMARTDRV.EXE) is loaded to cache reads and writes to drive A, and you follow the Setup prompts, the first floppy disk is removed before MS-DOS has finished writing to the floppy disk. This results in various problems and the wrong files being written to the setup disks.
CAUSE
The cached data is not flushed to the floppy disk before you are prompted to change floppy disks.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT version 3.5. This problem was corrected in Windows NT version 3.51.
