SYMPTOMS
========

When you run System Management Server 1.1 Setup on a Windows NT 3.5 Service Pack
3 computer, the Upgrade Site option in the Site Operations dialog box is not
available.

This problem occurs if the Windows NT 3.5 CSDVersion is Service Pack 3. Systems
Management Server 1.1 Setup only allows you to upgrade your site if the
CSDVersion is Service Pack 2 or less.
