I have windows nt server 3.51 on a cd can this be put on floppy disk if so how and how many disks also have windows nt workstation ver 5.0 beta 1 can this also be put on floppys THANKS

If your hardware system is so old that it was built without a CD Reader, it's probably also gonna give you problems after you install NT 3.51
Microsoft started the CD Drive trend in part so that it would be harder for people to copy (i.e. counterfeit) installation media.
I'm not answering your question, I know, but I'm recommending that you just go ahead and spring for the CD Reader, or a CD r/w drive. If you replace your computer later, the CD drive will function in the newer machine.
See:

They say you need 117 MB disk space. That's 82 diskettes.
Still interested? Good.
BT 5.0 Beta will require 417 diskettes.

Anyway I could get NT 5.0 Beta 1 from you?
I really like to collect old betas. Plz e-mail me if you read this.
