This article was previously published under Q106742 SYMPTOMS
You cannot get the video to work correctly under Windows NT on a
Toshiba 4400sx monochrome computer with an external monitor. This is
caused by the Western Digital (WD) video driver. The WD driver
expects the WD chip set on the 4400sx to be standard when in fact it
is a slightly modified version designed specially for the Toshiba
monochrome computer. The WD driver does not use the proper unlocking
code and is not able to write anything to the video adapter.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT and
Windows NT Advanced Server version 3.1. This problem was corrected in
the latest U.S. Service Pack for Windows NT and Windows NT Advanced
Server version 3.1. For information on obtaining the Service Pack,
