DMA (Direct memory access) mode is a high performance mode for transferring data to and from devices, in particular, to CD and DVD burner devices.

DMA mode allows the processor to transfer large pieces of data with very little software overhead - therefore requiring low CPU utilization. In this mode, high speed burning can be performed in background with other programs running.


STEPS...RIGHT CLICK ON MY COMPUTER
My computer>>Properties>>Hardware>>Device Manager>>IDE ATA/ATAPI controller>>

Select either the Primary or secondary IDE channel, which controls your burner drive, right click on it and select Properties.

Advanced settings>>DMA( if avialable)
