I'll try .. but it seems that my CDRW is on primary channel set as master,
and DVD as slave.
HD is on secondary, set as master. Could it be a problem? I know it's a
completely different issue as to optimal configuration of IDE..
So in my case, I should change DMA setting on my primary channel?
Thanks..!
