Re: Slow Hard Drive on Dell Inspiron E1505

Thanks, Matt. That route ends up with "DMA if available" and below it the transfer mode is "PIO Mode". I have since found a hardware conflict under "System Devices" between the "SMBus Controller and the 3rd instance of "Systen Board". Neither has a driver. I am somewhat reluctant to uninstall either for fear of no return...
