EISADMA=<Boolean> or <channel>,<size>

Default:        0,8; 1,8; 2,8; 3,8; 5,16w; 6,16w; 7,16w (Each pair goes
                with its own EISADMA setting.)

Purpose:        Specifies the mode of operation of an extended DMA channel
                for Extended Industry Standard Architecture (EISA) machines
                only. This setting's value can take one of two forms. If you
                disable this setting, Windows will treat the machine as
                non-EISA, therefore avoiding all EISA-related logic. You can
                try disabling this switch if you cannot run Windows in 386
                enhanced mode on your EISA machine. If you are using an
                EISA machine, you can specify the default transfer size for
                one or more DMA channels. The channels can operate in the
                following modes: 8-bit (8), 16-bit specified in words (16w),
                16-bit specified in bytes (16b), or 32-bit (32). If you are
                not using an EISA machine, Windows will ignore this setting.

To Change:      Use Notepad to edit the SYSTEM.INI file.
