Hans, You didn't make clear what you fixed. You made it to run in PIO mode? Anyhow, I am sure my DMA errors are caused by cpufreq, but I choose a silent PC over an ideally functioning tuner card. I have an AMD Turion64 running on an nForce4 motherboard, which I'd expect is a rather unusual combination.
