Close any application that may have the MTD driver open before attempting to uninstall it. Failure to do
this will cause the uninstallation to fail

attempt to uninstall the driver could be performed.
The driver can be uninstalled by using the Windows NT Installation Wizard. Open the Wizard by double-
clicking on the Add/Remove Programs icon in the Control Panel. On the Install/Uninstall tab, find and
select the entry that reads
Mag-Tek Device Drivers (MTD) uninstall
