Eventually, I tracked it down to the only piece of hardware that wasn't in
the machine prior to this install (it was a reinstall, so I knew the machine
functioned before). Turns out the SMC EtherEZ card that was in the machine
was conflicting with the Adaptec SCSI card, and while DOS didn't really
mind, NT was a little upset about it.
Good luck!
Regards,
Phil
