It says "Check off the devices to enable DMA". This is kinda confusing. I have both boxes checked (CDrom and HD) With the "Current Mode" showing UDMA for each. I assume DMA is enabled. But I was kinda confused at firs about the "Check off" part....I wasn't sure if it meant check the box or uncheck the box. But like I said, I assume it means to check the boxes to enable dma since the current mode for each ide device is UDMA. I was just hoping I could get some confirmation here. Thanks.

i know...those idiots still don't know hwo to fix ambiguous wording..anyway, it says UDMA in the current mode, so that's what it is..

i use the beta 3.1.1 beta bus master drivers that actually come w/ a 30304234 times better ide utility that not only uses disambiguous wording, but allows more configuration options (between UDMA, DMA and PIO modes)
