Hi,

I have a Gigabyte 8PE667 Ultra motherboard with 2 120 GB Harddisks connected to IDE3 and IDE4 (Promise raid) running on Windows XP Prof. SP1.

When I'm loading/saving on the drives my mouse and sound stutters and my CPU capacity hits 100%. I think it has to do with DMA so I checked the promise raid controller setting in the windows control panel settings but couldn't find any DMA parameters to set.

Can anyone help me out?

Thanks!

Kid

When I check my DMA setting with MSINFO32 I don't see any DMA being used by my IDE and Promise controllers. Is this normal???

Thanks for your support!
