I mean the DMAXXX speed, Whenever I re-install windows I have to tell it to use DMA
if it is avalible for my CD-ROM and Zip. It defaults to PIO mode with those two but
not my hard drive (it gets set to DMA).
How do I enable the legacy driver? I never installed a driver for the Zip I just
let windows use what ever it has.
