Default HELP with a few things please!!!

Hi there,
1. When I boot my machine sometimes it can take up to 10 mins to search for drives in my computer, any ideas why?

2. Anyone know how to enable DMA on an Nvidia Nforce2 motherbard? I can't burn DVD movie's using Nero vision or COvertX.

Cheers for anyones help.

Hi,

Well, I think we can answer both of those for you

1) Have a look at this post by Arctos http://www.pchelpforum.com/general-c...tml#post147194

2) How to enable DMA mode

Hi thanks for that.

OK, 1. Machine is still loading up really slow, and it takes as I said about 10 mins for drives to come up in my computer. Any other ideas?

2. I am using an Nvidia Nforce 2 motherbard. DMA config is very different from that site. Can anyone help.

Cheers
