DMA Transfer Mode
   "This setting determines which type of DMA transfers will  occur between the host and this adapter. If Burstmode is  selected, data will be transfered in blocks. If Single_Transfer is selected, a full DMA handshake will occur for each byte transfered. 
   Burstmode DMA transfers may be incompatible with some types of computers. If it is suspected that this card is causing the system to crash intermittently, the problem may be solved by choosing Single_Transfer DMA Mode."
