893.0. "1000a fails NT 3.51 install" by KAOFS::M_VALLEE (csc hull canada) Tue May 06 1997 10:15

alphaserver 1000A 5/400
nt 3.51
1 rz28
1 rz29
1 zlxp-e1 video card

When trying to install NT on the above system it fails with a blue screen

stop C0000135
unable to locate dll
the win32k.sys could not be found.

We have the latest HAL from the web and the firmware, and the latest video
driver, the rz28 has a 7mb partition as a FAT.This must be hardware but what 
specifically?

Have you tried to do a re-install of NT? The error indicates that win32k.sys
could not be found. Have you check to see if this file is on the hard disk?

    this is a brand new install nothing was on the disk, we get the error
    after the install says to reboot the machine.

Do you have another machine where you can examine the contents
of the disk to see if win32k.sys is there? Also, you might want
to check your SCSI setup and make sure the termination is correct.

    We did the 5/333, 5/400 qual under WNT V4.0.   I suggest you to install
    WNT 4.0 and AlphaBIOS 5.28.
    
    It works for us in LES Qual.
