Can some techies help me out with this:
Under IDE ATA/ATAPI Controllers/Primary IDE Channel, there is no Advanced Settings page for me to select dma or pio. Same for secondary channel.
Under Disk drives of Device Manager/Polices, the whole page with heading Write caching & safe removal is shaded out so that I can't choose optimise for safe removal or performance.

XP automatically chooses the best setting between UDMA/PIO.
The change occured with a recent update, you can look for it at Microsoft.com
