Re: DVD drive slow as molasses all of a sudden

my px716 drive has been acting up too [bouncing buffer levels, slow read/write speeds, etc], so i thought i'd check the properties like you said Local...

the Secondary IDE Channel says that both Device 0 is in "Ultra DMA Mode 5" & Device 1 is in "Ultra DMA Mode 5"...both are set to "DMA if available" for Transfer Mode

the Primary IDE Channel says that both Device 0 is in "Ultra DMA Mode 5" & Device 1 is in "PIO Mode"... but both are set to "DMA if available" for Transfer Mode...

so if Device 1 on my Primary IDE channel is set to "DMA if available" but still in "PIO Mode" how do i change it?

thanks for this info by the way
