By Bray - usenet poster

hi..i do not know if this is the reason for my probem i am getting with
capturing DV just trying to narrow it down
i cannot seem to check that my drive is using dma as in the "system
properties" for the drive is blank
and every time i check it its removed on reboot,but the bios reports on boot
up "AWARD" thats it is LBA 46GB UDMA

i was just wondering if this is the cause of not giving me the performance
on capturing dv souce clips without dropped frames

You didn't post what OS you're running under, which would be extremely
helpful - but i'll assume you're running under Win98/ME based on your
"checkbox" question.

There exists an issue with the Win9x core and UDMA. If the maximum UDMA
speed of the drive is different (greater) than what Win9x thinks is the
maximum speed of the IDE controller, it will automatically disable UDMA just
like you posted.

Try setting the drive up for UDMA/66 (if you don't have the utility grab it
at http://service.boulder.ibm.com /storage/hddtech/ibmftool-inst all.exe) and
retest it. With a deskstar 46mb you should probably be doing at least
30mb/sec sustained transfer rate in disk inspection test.

Seems awfully low. A 46 Gb IBM ide disk drive should do in excess of
25 Mb/s at least during burst. I suspect you have a driver problem. Then
again, that can be said for almost all windows trouble :-)

Good luck,
Jurriaan
