6.1 The Add/Edit profile does not appear upon installation
The Compaq driver requires Windows NT Service Pack 4 or higher.
In case you are running SP3 or lower, your Windows NT system
does not provide the Windows system DLLs required to make the
Add/Edit profile window work.
You can resolve this error by either:
* Installing Microsoft Windows NT Service Pack 4 or higher
(SP 6a is recommended),
* Run the patch comupd50.exe provided on the Compaq CD in
the xtras subdirectory.
