Hi there,

I got an old Soltek SL-66 B/C mboard (Intel LX chipset/ATX/Slot1/AGP/CPU Celeron 533 not Coopermine/128 Mbytes) that's hooked up to a Fujitsu HD (MPE3084AE, 8.4 Gig). The BIOS keeps detecting it as UDMA4 (as far as I know the LX did not support UDMA4) and I can't enable the DMA transfer in systems panel because of this mishandling (I'm running WinME). I already updated the Bios (got a new file after I contacted Soltek) and the HD is set as primary master with no slave (so are the jumpers).
I would really appreciate if someone lent me a hand...
