Microsoft never really supported Alpha
Back then their "support" for Alpha was comparible to the Mac support in recent years, and limit the processor to running second class code, even in MS terms. The Alphas that were running MS's code were so slow that everybody felt cheated compare to the amount of money they have to spent.
