+ <p>This chapter describes the OS specific parts of OTP which relate
+ to Windows NT.
+ </p>
+
+ <section>
+ <title>Introduction</title>
+ <p>A normal installation of NT 4.0, with service pack 4 or later,
+ is required for an embedded Windows NT running OTP.</p>
+ </section>
+
+ <section>
+ <title>Memory Usage</title>
+ <p>RAM memory of 96 MBytes is recommended to run OTP on NT.
+ A system with less than 64 Mbytes of RAM is not recommended.</p>
+ </section>
+
+ <section>
+ <title>Disk Space Usage</title>
+ <p>A minimum NT installation with networking needs 250 MB, and
+ an additional 130 MB for the swap file. </p>
+ </section>
+
+ <section>
+ <title>Installation</title>
+ <p>Normal NT installation is performed. No additional application
+ programs are needed, such as Internet explorer or web server. Networking
+ with TCP/IP is required. <br></br>
+
+ Service pack 4 or later must be installed.</p>
+
+ <section>
+ <title>Hardware Watchdog</title>
+ <p>For Windows NT running on standard PCs with ISA and/or PCI bus
+ there is a possibility to install an extension card with a hardware
+ watchdog.
+ </p>
+ <p>See also the <c>heart(3)</c> reference manual page in

+ <section>
+ <title>Starting Erlang</title>
+ <p>On an embedded system, the <c>erlsrv</c> module should be used,
+ to install the erlang process as a Windows system service.
+ This service can start
+ after NT has booted. See documentation for <c>erlsrv</c>.</p>
