I'm assuming it's IDE Inteface right?
How's is it setup? Primary Slave,Secondary Master or Slave?
From what you're telling me on the error message it could be the problem..that's my opinion..
Try setting up Secondary Master if possible..
Because if you put it on a Secondary Slave I heard it caues lot of problems from lot of IDE CDR drive users..Personally I use Scsi so I couldn;t tell you much except that..
