The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Windows NT Workstation version 3.5
  • Microsoft Windows NT Server version 3.5

Page 30 of the Windows NT version 3.5 Hardware Compatibility List (HCL) lists display adapters supported on DEC Alpha AXP systems. Page 31 of the HCL states that "Display adapters not listed above are expected to work if they use the following chipsets." This statement would suggest that the table of chipsets and respective drivers found on page 31 are supported on the Alpha systems. This is not the case. Page 31 of the Windows NT version 3.5 HCL is not in the correct location; the information on that page applies only to x86-based systems.
