Yeah I know Peter. I thought I made that clear, sorry if I didn't. Please read again. Mine is NOT THERE, I don't have the "advanced" tabs, and my question was, why? Does the IAA remove that tab, or advanced Intel mobo drivers remove it? Thanks, -Clint
Happy Holidays to all & God Bless Clint Hamilton, Owner http://OrpheusComputing.com ) ----- Original Message ----- From: "Peter Kaulback" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Clint go into System in Control Panel then Hardware, Device Manager, IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers. Then under Advanced Properties for the Primary and Secondary IDE Channel Properties you can select "DMA if available" or "PIO only".
