This build has to be installed either by booting computer from floppy disk (for example using Windows 98 boot disk) or hard disk (for example using existing DOS installation) and then launching \I386\WINNT.EXE from the 1796.1 CD. It is also possible to upgrade from existing Windows NT 4 installation.
