Microsoft periodically releases updates to the Windows NT 4.0 operating system in the form of
Microsoft Service Packs. To date, there have been three Service Packs released. Each Service Pack
includes upgrades, patches and new software components that introduce new functionality. Once a
Service Pack has been installed it is integrated into the operating system.
On portable platforms where Windows NT 4.0 is the preinstalled operating system, Service Pack 3
is also preinstalled. All Compaq portable products that support Windows NT 4.0 support Service
Pack 2. Compaq does not support Service Pack 1 or the retail version of Windows NT 4.0 without
either Service Pack 2 or Service Pack 3 installed. Compaq strongly recommends an upgrade to
Service Pack 3 for customers who have not installed any Service Pack or who are using an earlier
Service Pack version.
Besides meeting stringent internal criteria for Windows NT 4.0 compatibility, all Compaq portable
products have passed the rigorous Microsoft Windows Hardware Compatibility Test. Information
