Ok...im really frustrated. Does anyone have or could make a zip file of the service packs (2-6a) and ie (3-6) for download as I don't have my guest os (windows nt 4.0 sp1/ie 2) hooked up to the internet and thus can't download them myself. Every time I try and download sp 6a it tells me i need ie 3 or higher but when i try and dl ie 3 or higher i tells me i need a more recent service pack. I am completely confused. Thanks in advance for any time or help anybody can offer. I think I actually need ie 3....because i can't use 6 (i tried) and i haven't found 4/5 yet but as you go to each new version the sp requirements get new and newer each time.

Can't you download the service packs fto your host, then transfer over to your guest? Most service packs have a "network" install option that allows you to downoad the entire app instead of just a loader. This may be the way to go.
I got it to work....I found IE 3.0 on oldversion.com. Then I was able to download an early service pack that I also found on that website. Then Finally, I went straight to sp6, and updated IE to 6.0. Is nt 4.0 compatible with IE 7.0?
