Plextor 8/4/32 CD-RW and DMA

tourettes

I noticed that my Plextor doesn't use DMA-mode any more. I have enabled DMA from secondary IDE channel properties. It worked some time ago, but now it suddenly stopped. Any one got any ideas? I'm not sure if this happened after or before I upgraded Plextor's firmware to 1.

UDMA in Win2k not working: VIA MVP3

larojas

I have a A-Trend 5220 motherboard with VIA's MVP3 chipset. UDMA mode refuses to activate for the primary IDE channel in Windows 2000 Pro. Worked fine under WinNT & 98. Errors are reported in Event Viewer (ID's 5 & 11).

How to prevent Win2k from creating error logs?

Preacher

I´ve got a big problem with Windows 2000´s error log creation in case a program crashes. Since I never look into that logfile, I´d like to disable creating it, but chainging the options under System won´t prevent this.

Where can I get a beta copy!

Arin

I have windows 2000 and DSL so i was wondering if anyone can tell me where i can get a beta copy of Windows Whistler or Windows ME. I believe if they have the time bomb on them, they are legal to download.

Havent seen this one before

Sixty

Alright, for once this is a CD-RW question that doesn't have anything to do with burning CD's. My drive has worked fine for months now, but I decided to uninstall eazy cd creator 3. 5 to install 4. 0.

Hey I just saw this on the Microsoft Website. It says it's some sort of debug version of the Windows 2000 DirectX run time. Not sure what it does or if it'll make any difference. Check it out and tell me wussup.

SCSI or Fasttrak66

slkh

Seems like I am having a problem with Fasttrak66. I have an onboard SCSI and a Fasttrak66 IDERAID card. It does not have the Fasttrak66 BIOS bootup screen at all when I enable onboard SCSI. But the Fasttrak66 BIOS screen does appear if I disable SCSI onboard.
