The specific URL is <http://www.wolfram.com/support/2.2/Systems/Windows/NTandMath.html>. Can I run Mathematica under Windows NT? Mathematica for Windows versions 2.2.1, 2.2.3 and later will run under Windows NT. If you have Mathematica 2.2.3 for Windows, then the Mathematica kernel is running in native NT mode, although the Mathematica front end is still running in 16 bit Windows emulation. Mathematica version 2.2.2 does run under NT, but that version was not optimized for NT and you may experience some problems unique to running that version under Windows NT. If you have Mathematica 2.2.2, you should consider upgrading to Mathematica 3.0. Contact Wolfram Research, Inc. for information on how to upgrade. Note that if you are running Mathematica 2.2.1 under Windows NT, you may experience some problems loading packages. See the Web page about loading packages under Windows. If you are running Mathematica 2.2.2 or above under Window NT, then you need to have TCP/IP installed. You do not need a network card, but the software must be installed. See the Release Notes for further information. I hope this helps. --Ian ----------------------------------------------------------- Ian Collier Wolfram Research, Inc. ----------------------------------------------------------- tel:(217) 398-0700 fax:(217) 398-0747 ianc at wolfram.com Wolfram Research Home Page: http://www.wolfram.com/ -----------------------------------------------------------
