I installed NT on a box and after boot-up all I get is a black screen with a blinking cursor.

The OS Loader seems to boot, then I get the blue screen with Windows NT and the RAM, but after that it goes to the black screen and cursor.

Any suggestions? Thanks.

I am sure you may have done these things already but just in case, check or do the following:

Check hardware compatiability list to ensure you meet hardware requirements to support NT

reinstall Windows NT and pay attention to questions that itasks or error messages

Problem could be with your video display card.
