757446 2009-03-20 09:42:00 I can't understand the meaning of PIO and DMA crazy4sunshine (14724)
757447 2009-03-20 09:46:00 Someone mentioned DMA - this is probably the problem if you're using an IDE HDD.

To check this - type devmgmt.msc into the run box, and expand the IDE ATA/ATAPI Controllers section.

Open the Primary IDE Channel. Go to the advanced settings tab.

It ought to look like the attached pic.

If it says PIO in the current transfer mode, uninstall the primary IDE channel and reboot the PC. When you reboot check it again and the current transfer mode shoudl be DMA.

Read.
