I had problems with NT4/Win95 setup - Win95 chaged the COM port settings
etc.

Last week I went to a seminar on NT4 installation, and was told that under
no circumstances should you install NT4 & Win95 on the same system. Other
people at the seminar had also had problems - usually works OK under NT,
but Win95 then detects 'new hardware' and needs to be reset. This appears
to be a particular problem with Plug and Play cards.
