DMA TRANSFER MODE

 The Ultra DMA and Multi-DMA modes enhance hard disk performance
by increasing the transfer rate.  However, besides enabling these
features in the BIOS Setup, both the Ultra DMA and Multi-DMA modes
require the DMA driver to be loaded.  By setting this parameter to 

Auto

,

BIOS automatically sets the appropriate DMA mode for your hard disk.

CD-ROM DRIVE DMA MODE

Set this parameter to 

Enabled

 to enable the DMA mode for the CD-

ROM drive.  This improves the system performance since it allows
direct memory access to the CD-ROM.  To deactivate the function, set
the parameter to 

Disabled

 .
