i use hundreds of mini-itx based via C3-800 w/ 256MB of mem
and 20G ata100 and onboard video and mplayer-*pre[1,2,3] all works fine
make sure you have dma turned on -- ( using_dma = 1 )
hdparm -iv /dev/hda | grep dma
- which distro are you using ?
- which kernel are you using ?
- works for me with slackware-9.1, suse-9.0 and linux-2.4.2[3,4,5]
