yep. Steve its at www.microsoft.com/ntserver/nts/downloads/recommended/sp6/
it was posted here a couple weeks ago. I'm running the 128 bit version; its
a big download 34 meg, but I copy it right to my NTflat directory that has
all the I386 files so I never need to use the cd's; the flat directory gets
updated & supplies all the drivers etc for installs. Then run SP6 again
with every hardware change or system modification.

I thought NT4 SP5 was the most recent version. Is there a SP6 ?
