How's this coming? Did you have success? I just finished an NT4 install
about a month ago on a 755CD-Pentium, and may be able to help with any
probs... The system has been running flawlessly with the exception of my
own stupidity.

Thank you for asking, I was at DOS 5 without cd support. Upgraded to
6.2 and added windows 3.1. Only to find that the CD well not read. It
spins up and the light flashes then I get a error (CDR101: Not ready
readingdrive
D Abort, Retry, Fail?) when tring to use a command (dir, ect.). I know
the drive worked a few months ago with the old HD (340 meg) with 95 that I
traded away for this 1.2 gig HD (blank). So I'm hardware stuck before I
can get any further with the software :( Any ideas on my cheapest out to
get NT 4 on this old 755cd? Trouble shoot the cd? Replace the CD? Cheap HD
with NT4 installed? Other ideas?
Many thank's in advance!!
