>I tried to install NT Server 4.0 in my computer after I got new hard drive of 10.2 GB. It failed after giving the message that said somenting about the boot signature not matching. I tried several times and failed as before. Then according to the advise of a friend of mine I left out some part of the hard drive ( did not partition it ) and then the installation worked. What was wrong ?

There is normal limit of 4GB for a boot drive on NT. MS KB article Q114841 shows a workaround to bump that up to 7.8 GB but that still falls short of you 10.2 GB drive.
FWIW, I always create a small partition 500MB to 1 GB for installation and then format the rest of drive as NTFS. I only add NT to the boot partition (no other applications).
