SYMPTOMS
========
When you attempt to reapply Service Pack 5 in Windows NT Workstation 3.51 from
the November, 1996 MSDN CD-ROM, you may be repeatedly prompted for the Windows
NT Workstation CD-ROM or the CD-ROM containing the Service Pack files.
CAUSE
=====
Service Pack 5 was moved to CD-ROM 10 in the November, 1996 MSDN library. In
previous MSDN libraries, Service Packs and Windows NT installation folders are
on the same CD-ROM.
RESOLUTION
==========
To resolve this issue, use one of the following methods:
- Install Service Pack 5 from the most current MSDN release.
- Download Windows NT 3.51 Service Pack 5 from the Microsoft Web site at
http://www.microsoft.com.
- Copy the Service Pack 5 and Windows NT 3.51 installation folders to a
temporary folder on the local hard disk. Copy the Service Pack 5 files to the
<tempdir>\Winnt351.sp5\<platform> folder, and copy the Windows NT
3.51 files to the <tempdir>\<ntplatform> folder, where
<tempdir> is the temporary folder on the local hard disk,
<ntplatform> is the folder containing the appropriate Windows NT
installation files for the type of computer you are using (for example, I386
for Intel-based computers), and <platform> is the folder containing the
appropriate Service Pack 5 installation files for the type of computer you
are using. Then, run Update.exe from the
<tempdir>\Winnt351.sp5\<platform> folder.
MORE INFORMATION
================
Later MSDN CD-ROM kits may have the Service Pack files on an alternate CD-ROM.
Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new information here in the
Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
