Check in the hard drive controller dialog in system device manager(right
click my computer, select properties, hardware, device amanger.) Make sure
DMA is enabled. Reboot, see if that helps. (or if DMA is enabled, disable
it)

Hi
I had the following setup
Creative CDRW 4224E
Samsung 8x DVD
40Gig Harddrive (IBM, ATA 100)
Asus A7V motherboard (This motherboard has 2 IDe channels for ATA 100
and
also the normal 2 IDE channels. You are able to connect 8 devices
(2devices
x 4 cannels)
Windows 2000 Pro
The hard drive was connected to the primary ATA 100 IDE channel. The DVD was
connected to the Normal (ATA66??) Secondary IDE channel as Master. The CDR
was connected to the Normal (ATA66??) Primary IDE channel as Master.
Everything worked A1!!
I changed my motherboard to a MSI 6330 (K7T Pro 2-A) It only has an ATA100
controller onboard. My connections changed as follows:
Hard drive as Master on Primary with 80 wire Cable
DVD as Slave on Primary with 40 wire cable
CDR as Master on Secondary with 40 wire cable
Now my CDR and DVD is very slow. Some programs failed to install. (eg Delphi
5 Pro complained about slow network due to high traffic. Only problem is
that I am not connected to a network, it is a local drive.
1) What could be the problem?
2) More importantly: What could be a solution?
Thanx
Michiel T Neethling
