jkomkov 0 Posted August 2, 2000 Actually that just shows UDMA enabled/disabled, in order to enable UDMA66 you must apply a registry hack... to enable UDMA66 : [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E96A-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}\0000] "EnableUDMA66"=dword:00000001 to set back to default: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E96A-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}\0000] "EnableUDMA66"=dword:00000000 you can also grab premade reg hacks that you can easily merge over at http://www.tweak3d.net they have quite a few Win2k tweak guides.

ByronT 0 Posted August 2, 2000 Actually that registry hack only applies to Intel onboard ATA66 chipsets. For other chipsets and external controllers (HighPoint and Promise), only the use of their Win2K drivers are needed for ATA66 support. HTH. ------------------ J.

jkomkov 0 Posted August 2, 2000 Thanks for the info, although I did notice increased throughput on my KX133 mobo after enabling the reg entry. Not sure why could just be related to something else but again thanks for pointing that out. Share this post Link to post
