Appendix C. Customizing the device-driver configuration settings

Windows Me has two device-driver configuration parameters: Auto Insert Notify and DMA.

The Auto Insert Notify parameter enables the computer to start playing or accessing the disc automatically after being inserted in the drive.

The DMA parameter improves computer performance by having the computer DMA controller handle data transfers from the CD to memory, freeing the computer microprocessor to perform more important tasks. For example, activating DMA might make movies and games run more smoothly because the microprocessor will be allocating more processing time to video.

Enabling DMA for Windows Me

To change the DMA parameter settings from the Windows Me desktop, do the following:

1.Click Start --> Settings --> Control Panel.

2.Click on view all control panel options.

3.Double-click System.

4.Click the Device Manager tab.

5.Double-click CD-ROM.

6.Click on the drive that you want to modify.

7.Click the Settings tab.

8.Click to select the DMA check box.

9.Click OK.

Enabling DMA for Windows 2000

To change the DMA parameter setting for Windows 2000, do the following:

1.Click Start --> Settings --> Control Panel.

2.Double-click System.

3.Click the Hardware tab.

4.Click Device Manager.

5.Click the IDE ATA/ATAPI controller to open up the tree.

6.Double-click the device that corresponds to your CD-ROM port. It is either Primary IDE or Secondary IDE.

7.Click the Advanced Settings tab.

8.Click the Transfer Mode menu and select DMA if available.

9.Click OK.
