Re: DMA is not working

Reporting back...

I tried deleting and re-detecting the IDE controller, it worked in multi-word 2 DMA for a while after that. Still slow...

I updated my VIA chipset drivers, rebooted, still slow.

Did nothing for about 5days, suddenly it works great (compared to before), about 45 MB/s. The drive is about 50% full, so I can tolerate that...

If it stays this way, I will be happy. I just don't know if I really trust the drive though...

Once a hard drive gets stuck into the PIO mode or turned down windows will not turn it back up. So deleting the controller or editing the registry would do the trick. Each hardware setup the place in the registry is different, but once you find it not hard to remember. You could just search for masteriddatachecksum entry and delete it then restart the computer.
