Guest NewMDKguy2004 Posted June 11, 2004 Report Share Posted June 11, 2004 When starting Windows Or Linux, there is always this 30 seconds delay before it seems to really do anything, they both load fine, but anyway, heres my problem with linux. VP_IDE: VIA vt82c686a (rev 22) IDE UDMA66 controller on pci0000:00:04.1 ide0: BM-DMA at 0xd800-0xd807, BIOS settings: hda:pio, hdb:pio ide1: BM-DMA at 0xd808-0xd80f, BIOS settings: hdc:DMA, hdd:pio hda: IRQ probe failed (0xfffffffa) hda: IRQ probe failed (0xfffffffa) hda: no response (status = 0x0a), resetting drive hda: IRQ probe failed (0xfffffffa) hda: no response (status = 0x0a) hdb: IRQ probe failed (0xfffffffa) hdb: IRQ probe failed (0xfffffffa) hdb: no response (status = 0x0a), resetting drive hdb: IRQ probe failed (0xfffffffa) hdb: no response (status = 0x0a) hdc: HL-DT-ST GCE-8525B, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive Thats what i get on startup, which is exactly where the lag starts and ends, (dmesg log) what does this mean..

somedude Posted June 15, 2004 Report Share Posted June 15, 2004 (edited) Something I noticed: hda, hdb and hdd are in pio mode - are these your hard drives? Is DMA enabled in the BIOS for the IDE controller? What are your hard drives' models? The 30 s delay, it's between which steps?
