dma

i just recentely formatted my hard drive(using deltree), before i formatted my hard drive i had enabled dma for both the harddrive as well as the cdrom drive. but now when i go to device manager to enable dma for both the above products the dma check box isnt present and instead of my hard disk manufacture's name the name given to my hard disk is 'harddisk'.

Are you sure you selected the IDE controllers rather than disk drives in device manager? a lot of people make that mistake.
