You did not answer the DMA question - see link below http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/device/storage/IDE-DMA.mspx If you are in PIO mode it will extend your time considerably.
my cpu at first was running awesome then it started craping out on me i haven't tried to burn a dvd yet but im about to i'm thinking it may be my burning software. well right now my computer runs slow always when i burn cd's and other times at random
