I have seen several references to disabling DMA transfers and using these types of transfers in reviews and in the textfile for updating the firmware(they say to disable it prior to the update) ( I am using most recent 1.0H) for the yamaha cdrw2100ez. When I check for this(DMA checkbox in device manager|cdrw|properties|settings there isn't even the refered to check box and the int13 one and removable checkboxes are grayed out. Any ideas how to enable the DMA option? for this drive and my cd-rom ? Should it be through the bios ?? Help appreciated I want to get the max performance from my new burner
