- Although other Thinkpad models are supported, the IBM 750C Thinkpad is
- currently not supported under Windows NT because the Windows NT setup
- program is unable to detect its hardware correctly.
-
- NOTE: The Microsoft U.S. Service Pack 2 for Windows NT and Windows NT
- Advanced Server version 3.1 does support the IBM 750C Thinkpad. For
- information on obtaining Service Pack 2, query on the following word here

- When you install Windows NT on the IBM 750C, the graphical portion of
- Windows NT setup will not start. The text-based portion of the setup
- program runs fine. But after the system reboots and the OSload tries to
- start, it produces blue screen errors or fails to access a boot device and
- generates the following error message:
-
- Could not find mult(o)fdisk(0)partition(0).
-
- Different variations of this message may occur depending on how many hard
- disk drives and/or partitions the drives have on them.
-
- The IBM 750 Thinkpad included here is manufactured by a vendor independent
- of Microsoft; we make no warranty, implied or otherwise, regarding this
- product's performance or reliability.
