2. Install driver using INF-file:
   a) Control Panel->SCSI Adapters
   b) select Drivers property sheet
   c) click on Add button
   d) click on Have Disk button
   e) enter path to UATA_NT4.INF
        or to UNIATA_NT4.INF for UniATA versions below v30c
        or ro OEMSETUP.INF for UniATA versions below v26e
      from UniATA distribution and click on OK button
   f) select "Universal BusMaster ATA/ATAPI Driver"
      from list and click on OK button
   g) enter path to UniATA.sys from UniATA distribution
      and click on OK button

   To ensure safity of IDE BusMaster installation/deinstallation
   please refer to points 1 and 6-8 of Manual installation for NT4 (see below).

3. REBOOT your computer

1. unpack BusMaster_v39d.rar/tgz (150.2 Kb/249.6 Kb) 

2. replace atapi.sys with uniata.sys

3. REBOOT your computer

1. make a copy of your default Hardware Profile and set it as Default
   a) My Computer->Properties->Hardware Profiles
   b) select the Profile, marked as (Current)
      usually it's name is "Original Configuration"
   c) click on Copy button & name your copy (for ex. "UniATA")
   d) place UniATA profile at the top of list
      by clicking Up Arrow button
   e) click on Apply button

2. unpack archive with distribution

   Release (or Debug ;) directory
4. import idedma.reg into registry (just press Enter on this file)
5. REBOOT your computer

6. disable "Universal ATA Driver" driver in "Original Configuration" HW Profile
   a) Control Panel->Devices

   c) click on HW Profiles button
   d) disable driver in appropriate HW Profile
      by selecting Profile Name from list and clicking
      Enable button
   e) click on OK button

7. disable "Atapi" driver in UniATA HW Profile

   IMPORTANT !!!

   If you have installed IDE/ATA/BusMaster drivers from
   Motherboard's CD, the initial state of "Atapi" driver
   would be "Disabled" !!!
   In this case you should disable that driver instead
   of "Atapi" !!!

8. set startup mode of "Universal ATA Driver" to Boot
   by clicking Startup button

You sould see the following:
