I would say that if it boots in safe mode, then it's not a BIOS issue but rather a stupid Windows issue... They probably have a buggy driver or windows is loading the incorrect UDMA driver for your interface... I know this is a longshot, especially when you consider that Microsoft NEVER puts out buggy code.... hah.. Which I/O chip are you using for UDMA?
