I am running xp pro on a Dell Dimension 8400 and I want to enable DMA on
the 2nd hard drive. I have looked in the BIOS and there is no setting
there to change, I have gotten into Device Manager and removed the 2nd
drive and did a reboot of the system, the drive was then added back
automatically but it still isn't running as DMA enabled.

Any advice greatly appreciated.
TIA
ricardo

I forgot to mention that the drives are SATA
