I believe this works, but have not tried it myself. The usual
disclaimers that you use this at your own risk and modification to the
registry may get you into deep trouble.
Copy the PINBALL.SYS from the NT 3.51 media to
%systemroot%\system32\drivers.
Modify the following registry entry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CURRENTCONTROLSET\SERVICES\PINBALL
Add: ErrorControl: REG_DWORD: 0x1
Group: REG_SZ: Boot file system
Start: REG_DWORD: 0x1
Type: REG_DWORD: 0x2
Then reboot.
