    Check your DMA.

    Check your DMA settings - How ? do this -> Go to Control Panel> System> Hardware Tab> Device Manager> IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers> Right Click Primary IDE channel (and Secondary IDE channel after you finish with Primary)> Properties> Advanced Settings Tab> Transfer Mode or <a href="http://club.cdfreaks.com/showthread.php?t=101616">click here to learn.</a>

    Do the above from both "Primary & Secondary IDE channels".

    I (We) and you need to look at whats in both "Transfer Mode" and "Current Transfer Mode". Screen shot below is what I'm talking about.


    You can also look here for some other solutions: http://sniptools.com/vault/getting-b...windows-xp.htm

    If it is in "PIO" mode. Click the "Driver" tab, and uninstall the driver. Then reboot. Upon rebooting windows will automatically reinstall the driver and it should go back to "DMA" mode.




    Also make sure your firmware is update to date.

        Thank you alienfinder! I'm not really satisfied with CPU and motherboard but, will have to wait until I can afford better ones.
