__________________________ Note ____________________________
On the Intel platform, some monitors are unable to display the refresh rate used
during a short period of the initial installation of Windows NT 4.0 when using
the PowerStorm 300. This occurs after the first part of a fresh installation of
Windows NT following the period when the files are copied to the hard drive,
but before Windows NT displays the first full color display screen. If you have
chosen to use NTFS as your file system you may need to press the Enter key
during the period while the screen is black to begin the process of converting the
file system from FAT to NTFS.
