I posted about my burner messing up and someone posted that I needed to go to Device Manager and turn DMA on on all of my servers or something. Can someone help me out on how to do this?

Open device manager, on the right side hit the plus (+) sign to expand the list. Find IDE controls and expand it. Right click on the secondary IDE channel and select properties. Click on Advanced Settings tab.
Transfer mode should be DMA if available. Current transfer mode should be Ultra DMA Mode 2 or better.
