Hello!!

I have installed Win XP pro on my PC. After I did this I got the same DVD playback problems as I had in Win 98/ME untill i checked on the DMA for my DVD player. After this it was smooth and nice:-) Now when I got XP the movies are choppy, and I wonder if there is a way to activate the DMA for my DVD player? I cant find it.

My system is:
P3 866
Asus CUSL2 Motherbord
Asus G-force 2 MX 32
Pioner slot in 10x DVD player
Soundblaster live 1024

Please help:-)

Go to device manager (Right-click "My Computer", click Manage then go to Device Manager). Go to "IDE/ATAPI controllers", double-click either the primary or secondary channel and go to advanced settings. Change any device that's on PIO to "DMA if available".
