SYMPTOMS
When you attempt to install Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack 4 (SP4), the following error message may be displayed:
This error message may be displayed even though the computer has the amount of free space on its boot partition that the message indicates is not present.
CAUSE
This behavior occurs because SP4 may require up to 60 MB of free disk space, or 120 MB if you choose to also backup files for uninstallation.
RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem, increase the amount of free disk space in the partition where Windows NT is installed to at least 60 MB (if you do not want to create an uninstallation folder), or to 120 MB (if you want to create an uninstallation folder). This problem does not occur in Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack 5.
To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for Windows NT 4.0. For additional information, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in Windows NT 4.0 and Windows NT 4.0 SP4. This problem was first corrected in Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack 5.
