No mention of adding the FAT32 driver, while it is intended for FAT32 hard drives, it also gives access to FAT32 USB sticks, so most modern ones will work.

Yeeeeeaaaaaaaaa - I finally have a working PCI Express network card in WinNT 4.0 😀 😀 😀

Vendor: DELL
Model: BCM95722A2202G
Chip: BCM5722
Release date: 2012
AIDA64 detect: Broadcom NetXtreme BCM5722 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet Controller
PCI ID: PCI\VEN_14E4&DEV_165A
Type: PCIe x1 Gigabit Ethernet
Driver: 10.62.1.2 from https://soggi.org/drivers/broadcom.htm#NetX

I don't know how this work because in OEMSETUP.INF no DEV 165A:

I found some time to check the BCM5722 card that I previously tested with Windows 98 .

It works in NT 4.0 and installed on the first try - no fiddling around. 😀 I've also attached the drivers I used.

@Gelip It looks identical to yours.

@OMORES
After you wrote to me on YT that all you need to do is buy any network card with the BCM57xx chip, I found this website:
https://soggi.org/drivers/broadcom.htm#NetX

I thought that any card with a chip marked in blue would work, e.g. BCM5761, so I found one and bought it. Unfortunately, this website confused me 🙁

Actually, on YT I wrote exactly this: “For NT 4.0, you can find native PCI-E Gigabit cards from Broadcom (BC57xx) that will work.” - you just assumed that “cards” means any card. So it’s not on me… 😀

But the good part is that you can find a PCI-E card manufactured in 2012 that works with an OS from 1996 - even 1995, since it should work with NT 3.51 too.

Probably cards with such BCM chips are supported by WinNT 4.0 but I am not going to check it:

Does the UniATA driver work with a SATA drive in AHCI mode?

Now I have WinNT 4.0 SP6 installed in IDE mode. I changed the driver to UniATA and it works but still in IDE mode.
I changed the IDE mode to AHCI in BIOS but I have BSOD 7B

EDITED

OK, I already know what it's about - you also need to replace the SCSIPORT.SYS file with SCSIPORT.FIX
https://bearwindows.zcm.com.au/winnt4.htm#p2
Great - now you can have either IDE or AHCI mode in the BIOS and it works 😀
HWiNFO32 takes a while to analyze in AHCI mode, but it works:

P.S. In AHCI mode, I noticed that during some disk operations (I use FAT32 partition) the system hangs for several seconds, e.g. HWiNFO32 detects ATA/SCSI Drive(s)... for about 15 seconds:

If someone wants to use the LPT port, only SPP or EPP+SPP mode is supported - I use EPP-1.7 and SPP Mode:

In ECP or ECP+EPP mode, the system does not detect LPT port and device e.g. scanner not work!
This info help me:
https://www.oreilly.com/library/view/pc-hardw … 3s01s02s01.html

Windows NT through V4.0 does not support EPP or ECP bidirectional communications ports. If a parallel port is configured as EPP or ECP, Windows NT 4.0 and prior will not detect the port.

@OMORES
Have you tried using more than 2 CPUs in Windows Workstation NT 4.0 SP6?
This way not work for me: If we need to use more than 2CPU - you can patch NTKRNLMP.EXE to fix it
but this work: ...more than 2 CPU
I tested in VMware Workstation and on real PC - 4 CPU but the whole system is somehow unresponsive and slow 🙁

Additionally, you need to patch HALMPS.DLL because the processor temperature reaches 90 degrees and FAN runs at max speed !!!

BTW did someone intalled the latest UniATA 0.47b under WinXP?
I tried on my intel P67 (IDE mode, doing it for a specific purpose), after some issues it installed but I still have "!" mark in device manager at 2 of 4 contollers entries but UniATA is loaded and seems working. But there's one issue that happened - there's disappeared sleep option (suspend to RAM) in windows shutdown menu (it's grayed out). Is this known issue? Maybe the driver doesn't implement some power management (suspend/resume) functions...?

And about NT4 - I also tried to run SMP kernel having 4 cores of my SandyB available but not properly idling. I remember that I tried some patches but that had some side-effect that made system very slow. I don't remember if I tried also this hal.dll patch. The one I tried should do this: add HLT instruction to HalProcessorIdle function, is this the same?

I don't think UniATA targets support for NT 5.0 features. The author's site makes note of issues with PnP aware versions of Windows. Windows 2000/XP had strict driver support for power management features. Without it (or running the APM HAL vs. ACPI) you landed up with only auto power-off on shutdown and no suspend options.

Ah damn, so then it's not reasonable option for me. I would need extended SCSI LBA64 commands that UniATA offers or some LBA48 alternative to read physical sectors beyond 2TB...
