Hi!

I am running Windows XP Home Edition with SP1.

Although my BIOS is set to UDMA 6 and my HD has full support for it,
the
current Windows XP UDMA mode remains UDMA 5.

I have tried reinstalling the driver from the Windows XP install CD-ROM
to no avail.

The version of my current ATA driver is 5.1.2600.1106.

Would anyone know if and where a newer driver is available?

Or a fix for this glitch?

Thank you very much for any answer.

Cheers,
Robert
 
Does you M/B support it?
