A few days ago, i did mistake when i trying to remove entry from NT server 4.0 registry file. After i restarted NT server, it stopped /blue screen saying "inaccessible_boot_device" and "dword dump/.
Unfortunatly, I had not emergency disk. I restarted the server and select "Last known" from nt server startup process. However, it could not help me. The problem still existed.

After that i tried to repair, upgrade and finally installed nt server software as new. Then it worked. But after i installed service pack, the dump existed
again. So i started again to create new partition, format and installed Nt server. However, it could not solve problem. The dump still existing. What i do now.
Please help me!!!

Not many possibilities :

1. delete every partition
2. boot from the NT server CD
3. create your partitions
4. install
5. install SP6a or SP3 do not try to use SP4 or 5 as it is bullsh.. .

Well, I hope this will help you

I did following:
1. Boot from NT CD
2. Delete all partitions
3. Create all partitions
4. Installed NT Server 4.0
5. Installed SP6a /Standard version for Intel (x86) platform/ which i downloaded from MS site.

Unfortunaly,the dump still persisted. SP3 works well with no problem. But i need at least SP4 installed in order to install SQL server 7.0.
What i do now?

This problem fixed through installing newest version of Compaq Server Support driver. There might be the relationship between Service packs and Compaq server support driver vesrions.
