Until recently, my Pioneer 105-DVDR Drive was set at Ultra DMA mode (DMA if available). The last few times I tried copying with Xpress the copy times took 30 minutes with 4x Ritek (they used to take about 15 to 20). When I checked the device properties it was still set at DMA if available but PIOS was selected?!?
I have Windows 2000 Pro, AMD 1.47ghz, and haven't a clue why this happened...
Please help!
Try not. Do or do not. There is no try...

saturnkk,
I experienced the same problem with my liteon LTD 163D. After reading several relared threads I moved my ROM from slave on the secondary IDE to slave on the Primary IDE. After rebooting it changed back to DMA. Before I resorted to this solution I tried deleting that drive in device manager and removed it in my bios. It still came up in PIO mode. Hope you have the same flexibility. Also take a look at this thread.
Thanks, I deleted the IDE driver intsead of the Pioneer DVDR driver and that seemed to work except that the first copy (with xpress)I tried to make had an error...
