System slows with hard disk access - help

Current config:
Asus A7V
Duron 600 oc to 950
Quantum 7200 ATA66 drive

My problem:
Whenever I have a lot of disk activity (for example, when I copy large files from one dir to another), my system slows down a bit and I especially notice it because my mouse "hic-ups" a bit across the screen.

Any ideas? I have DMA disabled, will this help if I enable it?

All latest drivers installed on WinME including the via4in1 etc.

thanks.
 
Enable DMA, and get more memory if you have less than 128 megs. Maybe add 64 if you have 128. What OS? Duh nevermind..
