This build was found by BetaArchive user ReflectiaX on 8 March 2016.https://www.betaarchive.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=61&t=37998 On 3 December 2018, this build was uploaded to the BetaArchive FTP server by the same user. It is currently only available as a server build. Prior to ReflectiaX's discovery, the build was reported to be, perhaps accidentally, made available on Microsoft's European FTP server on 13 September 1998.https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/comp.os.ms-windows.misc/build%7Csort:date/comp.os.ms-windows.misc/9khtLbz-LcM/zqZadNg791sJ
== NFO file ==
== New features and changes ==
* The background colors for both the boot, hibernation and safe to shutdown screens were changed from teal to blue, matching the shade that is used on the desktop background.
* It is now possible to enable high-color icons on this build without re-logging in.
* The setup page where the server can be set as a domain controller or a stand-alone server has been removed.
=== Control Panel ===
* This build introduces the "Enable pointer shadow" option in the Mouse applet.
* In the Add/Remove Programs applet (APPWIZ.CPL), the "Remove Programs" option has been renamed to "Change or Remove Programs" and "Windows NT Setup" to "Configure Windows". The "Modify/Remove" option is now named "Change/Remove" and the description next to it has been reworded as well.
* The "Internet" applet (INETCPL.CPL) received a new icon, now using a globe instead of the IE icon.
== Bugs and quirks ==
=== Workstation reference in the Server SKU ===
Despite being a Server build, the boot screen during setup, hibernation screen status, and the safe to shutdown screen still says Workstation, possibly due to incomplete rebranding. 
=== Control Panel ===
The Multimedia Control Panel applet ( mmsys.cpl ) may crash when clicking on CD Music.
=== Drivers ===
* Sound cards may not operate properly in this build; and can be difficult to fix the problem.
* This build has a major issue with graphics processing on many graphics adapters, where parts of the graphical user interface will not be displayed properly.
=== Installation ===
At one point of setup, an error is shown that it is unable to copy a file, the default answer is either the root directory of the CD-ROM drive or D:\I386\I386\ and has to be pointed to the I386 directory to copy these files.
=== Login ===
In some cases, the Welcome to Windows application can cause a login hang. If the system hangs while logging in, press , log out and then log in again.
=== Hibernation ===
The progress bar shown when the system is hibernating does not fill up the entire bar. Instead, a text-mode message appears in the top left corner saying State saved, power off the system.
