    The original poster said that the installer was asking for
drivers.  I'm not aware of an UltraSPARC port of Windows so I wouldn't expect 
install media to boot, let alone get far enough to ask for drivers.  Perhaps 
it's something like an Ultra 20 or 40 though.

    My 32-bit SPARCstations are long-since recycled.  A lunchbox SPARC
wouldn't take up much space but the cooling wasn't great on them.  I have a 
soft spot for the SLC and ELC but either of those would be hard for me to 
justify today.
