here we go guys ..
i'm about to install Win NT server 4.0 on a dual boot machine .. Win98 and linux RedHat 6.0
1. In the readme file of service pack it says that i should reinstall the SP each time I
install a new software or hardware in. is that right ?
what if I just update the driver for vga (Matrox G200) or sound (SB16 PnP) ?
2. I have a GigaByte 6BXE mobo .. and it comes with triones bus master drivers for several
OS including NT .. should i install those drivers ? or install the intel ones available
from Intel site ? or should stick with the built BM drivers that comes with SP 3 ?
or totally forget about BM and NT ? the triones drivers proved to be working very good with
Win95 OSR2 .. and I installed NT before and I noticed that IDE performance was very poor
under NT ..
3. Are the Service Packs cumulative ? i.e. should i install SP3 first then SP4 then SP5 and
so one ? or just install the latest one ? which SP6 or SP5 if i can't get SP6 ?
4. Is there a recommended order for installing drivers ( VGA, audio and modem ) and programs
and Service Packs ?
Any advice is appreciated.
thanx
sorry for my poor english
