A.) Make sure DMA mode is on. Some faulty data can cause it to revert back to PIO mode.

1.) Right Click on My Computer
2.) Click Properties
3.) Click the Hardware Tab, and then Device Manager
4.) Click the plus sign next to "IDE ATA..."
5.) Right click on either the primary or secondary IDE controllers and hit "properties". Here it really depends on what IDE channel If you have one marked "secondary IDE...", then I'm 90% sure that it is connected to that one.

7.) Look at what "Current Transfer Mode" says. Post back with the results.
