TYiO

Hi , I have a WD 20 Gb 7200RPM ATA100 and I can't set it to UDMA 5 . XP(build 2505) set it to dma 2 which is much slower... Why is that and how can I fix that? Thanks BYE

indeed it sounds like a stupid question BUT IT'S NOT!! I checked twice if my cable was an 80pin one, wrote to western digital, downloaded IDE drivers , etc... But finally I found out -thanks to you- that the guy who assembled my pc inverted the cd rom cable and the IDE cable...Blue end cable was not on the blue plug (that I didn't check) THANK YOU GUYS you saved my nerves!
