Chuck,
It is difficult to help when you give so little information.
Lets assume you have an IDE ATAPI cdwriter connected to /dev/hdd
In this case it may be worth turning off (or reducing) the DMA
with either one of these 2 commands:
hdparm -d0 -c1 /dev/hdd
hdparm -d 1 -X 34 /dev/hdd
Alternatively if it is a Yamaha SCSI cdwriter, find the "magicdev"
program and kill it (the permanent solution is "rpm -e magicdev").
