Hi,

Basically i can answer this question - Microsoft have removed most
references to NT4 from their website - they are trying DESPERATELY to
kill it off

Try the link on this page:

http://support.microsoft.com/?id=246009

I presume you are installing to Intel based hardware - in which case you
will need the "x86" link NOT the "Alpha" one !

As Dave Patrick has already replied to you, SP6a is also mirrored by
numerous sites, including download.com - which was the link he posted.

I haven't looked recently, but last time I was there the Microsoft FTP
servers still had all the NT4 content 9including the Service Packs and
hotfixes) in place.

Calvin.

Calvin, That's where I went first and they're no longer there.
