Hi there
When I enable DMA on my hard drives and cdrom and then try and run zip files or setup files I often get an crc error or an I/O error. Occasionally files that were working are now apparently corrupted. Often, but not always, the errors seem to occur when the zip program is unzipping a large file (such as a .wad file). The problem occurs whether I try to install from cd's or copy the files from the cd to the hard drive and try and install or unzip from there.
When I disable DMA things work OK.
I have a western digital and a seagate Hard drive, and a Sony cdrom and Sony burner. The hard drives are on the primary IDE and the two cd's are on the secondary IDE.
I have an Aopen motherbord with a VIA Apollo chip, Celeron 466, 256 meg RAM and am running Windows 98. I have all the latest drivers from Microsoft for Windows and all the latest drivers from Aopen for the motherboard.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance
