Nope - it doesn't work with NT4 - hidden away somewhere in one of the
many readme files it states this.

There an inherent "problem" (or feature - depending on how you look at
it) with NT4, that programs can't address hardware directly.

There are, however, some smart people who've got round this, and there
are several examples of code/programs that are available that break
the rule.

Unfortunately, Microchip seem to be ignoring this - Microsoft aren't
going to do anything about it until Windows 2000 (NT5) appears.

Bite the bullet and make it dual-boot machine, or get yourself a
laptop/second PC with 95 or 98 on.
