  • Microsoft Windows 3.11
This article was previously published under Q108480

SYMPTOMS

If you are using Windows 3.1 and Novell NetWare on a workstation that does not have a hard disk, choosing Set Up Applications from the Options menu in the Windows Setup program searches the path only.

WORKAROUND

To work around this problem, include every network drive and directory to be searched in the path.

STATUS

This problem occurs with Novell NetWare versions 3.11 and 4.0.

Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

MORE INFORMATION

If you run the Set Up Applications command on a system that has a hard disk installed but is still using a network installation of Windows, Setup searches the path, any local drives, and all mapped network drives.
