also make sure you are using the latest Highpoint drivers. Also TweakXP allows you to ativate UDMA-66 in XP, I think its off by default

oayadin:
 
yes i've changed the dev. manager is set to dma if available but the current state always stays in Pio. In only happens in Xp not in 2k.
 
pr-man:
 
Iam not using a highpoint controller. I'm using intel 440bx controller which supports udma 33 not 66. So i dont really need ultra ata 66 support only ultra ata 33.
