Windows NT



I weekend trip in the loft - quite literally - found me falling over an old
desktop PC I had stored up there and fogotten about. Pretty basic but I
think it could do a job for me perhaps running my HA stuff.

Problem is, it has Windows NT as it's operating system and having put a
network card in it, now find that the network protocols etc are missing and
need to be loaded via the original disk. I can't find the said disk in
amongst my many old software CDs - probably discarded in my last big throw
out, when I thought I had thrown this machine out too. Anybody any ideas of
a site I might be able to download the missing bits of software from?

Alternative is to reformat the hard drive and reload with W98 and that may
be the preferred option but having had a bit of play yesterday I can't work
out how to reformat an NT machine to enable W98 to be loaded. Probably
blindingly obvious, but I think the combination of sun and beer over the
weekend has scrambled my brain.

Thanks

Tim
