Award BIOS does not support bus mastering DMA for IDE drives, it always
does PIO 4 with those (Ultra) DMA capable drives. (Which is of no
wonder since UDMA for DOS seems not to be all that important to the
Award programmers; Windows NT/95 often are supported with IDE bus master
drivers from the chipset or mainboard manufacturers, e. g. VIA
(http://www.via.com.tw) for VP2, VP3, MVP3 and probably others)
