Hi Umesh,

There are two solutions for you :
- 1st (the bad one) : keep those ugly Micro$oft so-called "operating systems", and go to the windows forum to add your questions to the hundreds of problems people got with these...

-2nd (the good one) : format your hard disk and install OS/2, then you will be welcome here !

NT4 will not install on any version of dos later than 6.22 and on a IDE partion greater than 2gb.

Basically partion your hard drive to 2gb and format with dos 6.22. Try again and you should find all will be ok.

Good Luck
