Dev Mgr Advanced settings tab AWOL

K

kendal

I'm trying to check dma setting for my IDE controller cd-
rw to enable DMA mode using the Device Manager. I know the
supposed procedure is as follows

1.
Open Device Manager.

2.
Double-click IDE ATA/ATAPI Controllers to display the
list of controllers and channels.

3.
Right-click the icon for the channel to which the device
is connected, select Properties, and then click the
Advanced Settings tab.

But I don't have an advanced settings tab --how do I get
it? Any one know?

Found out the info on my own:

Advanced tab shows by default with xp IDE/ATAPI driver.
But if you have a chipset driver like VIA, or INTEL, you
need to get their tool for adjusting DMA setting.

If you have Intel Application Accelerator, this will not be visible.
Remove IAA from Add/Remove Programs, and it will become visible.
