    Bought a Matshita SR-8587 some weeks ago, at first I could rip at 6X - 8X any DVD, now sudenly the ripping speed droped for 1.6X - 1.7X maximum .

    I did not made any changes to the pc harware configuration, and don't think any to the drivers also.

    I have a PIV 1.5 512DDR the DRU-500 in secundary IDE as master and the Matshita in secundary IDE as slave (the same configuration that when did rip at 8X). Window XP Prof. Edition

    In the control Panel I can not change the Matshita to go DMA (DRU-500 is "Ultra DMA mode 2") the Matshita say "DMA if possible" but below does not change from "PIO Mode"

    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

    I have just tried to delete the driver ( "storprop.dll" / "atapi" ) files and rebbot the pc but it all satys the same .. and the speed is still 1.7 maximum !

    Also have S.M.A.R.T. mode disable ( should I ? )

    Can anyone help me please ?.. thanks

    After you do that it should bring your ULTRA DMA MODE from 2 to 5.

    GOOD LUCK,

    Thanks for the reply but ..

    ... deleting "storprop.dll" / "atapi" shouldn't the controllers be deleted ?

    It's in the hardware manager. Right click on the my computer icon and go down to properties. There should be a 'hardware devices' button, click that, look for the IDE controllers. Delete them, restart. XP will reload them at reboot and that solves about 99.9% of ripping problems

    DMA5 is ATA100 ! No optical drive support that !

    DMA2 is ATA33. if you use a 40wires IDE cable, it's the max you can go..
