&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbspI am pleased to hear that Max! CMOS stands for "Complimentary Metal-Oxide Semiconductor." Since the bios and setup routine are located on CMOS logic, that is where the name comes from.


&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbspOkay, those settings that you listed are regarding the Plug and Play characteristics of the DMA (or Direct Memory Access) channel; those of which are assigned to peripherals rather then the hard drive. So to be concise; that is not what you're looking for. May I ask how many years old this computer is? It may already have UDMA/33 enabled by default, and it will automatically enable/disable depending upon whether the hard drive supports it or not. So in that fashion, you'd be good to go.
