It still didn't work. The message I got this time is: I got this error initially as well when reinstalling to a new disk. I think I must have pressed "enter" at the wrong time. I tried again and all went well. Make sure you follow the Microsoft directions exactly.... If you are using Windows NT 4.0 Workstation, Server, or Terminal Server, follow these instructions: 1. Download the updated Atapi.sys from Microsoft's FTP server ftp.microsoft.com/bussys/winnt/winnt-unsup-ed/fixes/nt40/atapi/ATAPI.EXE and copy the file to a blank floppy disk. Run Atapi.exe on the diskette and the new Atapi.sys file will be extracted to the diskette. Label the disk "Microsoft ATAPI Service Pack 4 IDE Driver." 2. Boot from the three setup disks supplied with Windows NT Server. 3. When asked if you would like setup to detect your mass storage devices, press S so that detection is skipped and you specify a mass storage device. 4. When setup list devices found, which should list <none>, press S again and insert the Microsoft ATAPI Service Pack 4 IDE Driver disk and press ENTER twice. 5. After setup reads the disk and list the Microsoft ATAPI Service Pack 4 IDE driver, press ENTER to accept the driver. 6. Setup will now list Microsoft ATAPI Service Pack 4 IDE Driver as an installed driver. If you have additional drivers for other mass storage devices, press S; if not, press ENTER to continue through setup. 7. Setup should continue through normally but, it will prompt you to insert the disk labeled "Microsoft ATAPI Service Pack 4 IDE Driver Support Disk" at the copy phase after you have chosen or formatted a partition on a hard drive.
