Can´t get DMA with my cd-rom and burner

[Nuno 0]

They work fine with win98 in DMA mode. Now win2k autodetects pio mode, and if I select "use DMA if available" the system reboots and hangs. I must use the repair setup.

 

Using a Gigabyte 7IX mobo (AMD Irongate).

 

Any ideas?

 

Thanks.

Hey thanks! Actually I never could find an AMD 756 IDE driver for win2k, and reading your post I went to AMD site and finally they have a busmaster win2k compatible driver v 1.32 dated August 2k...

 

Installed it and it runs fine in DMA mode now!

 

Thanks again
