Mac - the DMA/PIO issue seems (as far as I can tell) to be associated with CDs and DVDs. "...The most frequent use why a CD or DVD port falls back to PIO mode is..." However I went ahead and fiddled with the registry as advised in one instruction. No help.

For the record, I also moved the EMU PCI card to several different empty slots with no change. All IRQs reported in the BIOS are unchanged, and I the Device Manager et al. still show no IRQ listings at all.

I's seriously considering the following desktop box. Way more than I need, price too good to pass up. Comments?

Dell Studio XPS 8100 / Core i5 760 / 8GB RAM / GeForce GTS240 1024 MB / 1 TB HD 7200 RPM / THX TruSound PC / my cost $810.
