SYMPTOMS
When you restart your Windows NT Server 4.0-based computer after you install the Post-Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack 6a (SP6a) Security Rollup Package (SRP), you may receive the following STOP (blue screen) error message:
CAUSE
This behavior can occur if your computer contains mismatched versions of the following operating system files:
tcpip.sys
netbt.sys
raspptpe.sys
This behavior can occur if, before you install the SRP, you install Remote Access Service (RAS) but do not reapply Windows NT 4.0 SP6a before you restart your computer.
NOTE: The current versions of these files are included with SP6a for Windows NT 4.0.
RESOLUTION
To resolve this issue, follow these steps.
Step 1: Restore the Driver Files
Copy the following files from the %SYSTEMROOT%\$NtUninstallQ299444$ directory to the %SYSTEMROOT%\system32\drivers directory:
tcpip.sys
netbt.sys
raspptpe.sys
To gain access to the Windows file system, use one of the following methods.
Method 1: Use the Windows 2000 Recovery Console
