Microsoft Windows NT Workstation 4.0 (Service Pack 3 recommended) or later."

MORE INFORMATION
================
Windows NT 4.0 Terminal Server is a product that enables the Microsoft Windows
NT Server to act as a terminal server for multiple, simultaneous client
sessions. Although Visual C++ may successfully install and run in a terminal
client, the behavior of Visual C++ in this environment is not guaranteed.
Windows NT 4.0 Terminal Server is not an officially supported platform for the
Visual C++ product.
Different problems have been reported in this environment. For example, in Visual
C++, when you attempt to start Help (by pressing F1 or by selecting a Help menu
item), you may receive the following error message:
