Installing the Windows NT Operating System
7.2.3 Starting Windows NT Setup
Windows NT Setup, located on the Microsoft Windows NT compact disk, installs the Win-
dows NT operating system. Windows NT Setup provides a brief description of the
available key functions at the bottom of the screen.
During the Windows NT installation procedure, you may be prompted for the type of com-
puter that you have. For the Alpha 164LX system, choose DIGITAL AlphaPC
164LX. If AlphaPC 164LX is not one of the choices, choose “other” after you have
inserted the AlphaPC 164LX Windows NT 4.0 Installation diskette. The following
procedure supersedes the Starting Setup on a RISC-based Computer section of the
Microsoft Windows NT installation guide.
To start the Windows NT Setup program:
1. Insert the Windows NT compact disc in the CD-ROM drive.
2. Restart your computer.
3. Start AlphaBIOS Setup, select Install Windows NT, and press Enter.
4. Follow the instructions on the screen.
