490.0. "NT 3.5/4.0 on 4000??" by DECIDE::LANGFELDT () Thu Feb 13 1997 16:05

    
    AlphaServer 4000 5/400
    Firmware V5.28
    ECU 1.9
    Have HAL (version B I think) from internet
    5 4GB disks, only one of which is formatted and partitioned
    
    NT Server V3.51 (also happens with V4.0)
    
    During install, it runs for about 2-3 minutes then crashes with
    the following error:
    
    	status code 0X4,0X1,0,0
    
    Then have to turn the machine off and back on to re-boot, only to 
    have same problem re-occur.
    
    Any ideas?
    
    Thanks,

    Hi Sharon
    
    status code 0X4,0X1,0,0
    
    wnt thinks that one of your disks has a virus on it and stops at
    this code. the virus ends up being a not FAT/NT formatted disk
    in the backplane somewhere.
    
    easiest way around this is pull/backout all the disks in the system
    except for the one you will be building wnt on. this disk will need 
    to be fat/ntfs formatted using alphabios first, then go ahead and
    install wnt to it. after wnt is built and boots succcessfully then
    reinsert the other disks and they can be used under disk admin to
    make them wnt formatted. make sure these are not vms/unix disks that
    someone wants to use for those functions. disk admin will wipeout
    those of operating systems disks.
