Hello to all,
I have a system running w2k server
it has 3 hard drives(2 sata and 1 ide), a dvdrom and dvdrw
now the problem Iam having is slow network transfers from local systems to the sata drives!
Iam positive it has something to do with DMA channels because I went through this problem before with my ide drives(and dvd burners in the past)
the only problem is in device manager it dont show if the sata drives are using dma channels
I can not believe that in this day and time dma channels are at a minimum still only 8
I dont use a sound card on this server system so I disabled the sound in bios(figuring I would free up a dma channel there), I do how ever still use the floppy on this so I could not do anything there
I started a topic on BBRHERE
but I dont think anyone can help(I dont know whats the problem)
can anyone help? this is slowing up my network transfers
thanks in advance
