423202 2006-01-22 10:00:00 Hi ....
I have suddenly run into some prolems with my LG burner.but before listing some I'd like to know how to access the DMA Enable/Dissable area. My burner cannot recognize blank CDrR discs. Nero popped up a box to say I should enable DMA for all drives. Would this be ok? and where do I Enable DMA?. Had a goog look in the CMOS area but can't see any refernce to it there. Hope some one can help.....Cheers Ken. :)

Click on 'Hardware' tab then / Device Manager
Look for a group called "IDE ATA/ATAPI Controllers", Double left click to expand
Double click Primary and/or Secondary IDE Channel
Under 'Advanced Settings' tab make sure that the 'Transfer Mode' is set to "DMA if Available"
