   (0xFF109C50, 0x00000000, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)

 - When you are attempting to create a set of installation disks using the WINNT
   /ox or WINNT32 /ox command, the following error message may be displayed:

   This floppy disk is not formatted as high-density, not formatted with a
   standard Windows NT or MS-DOS format, or is corrupted. Setup is unable to use
   this disk.
