IDE Device Failed

I have recently begun to have problems with my CXR700e (CDRW). I have searched on Dell and Google and have not gotten any guidance. Perhaps there is an answer on TTD. I seem to be having some problems with my CDRW. I can no longer burn greater than 2x. I can successfully burn with EAC or Easy CD-DA Extractor, as long as it is 2x. At 4x I get errors and the burn stops.

I have updated my drivers and have run the Dell DIAGNOSTICS CD. I run an extensive test of the drive and get the error very early in the test.

Error Message:
"IDE device failed"
"no audio output"

The problems are that it is quite buggy and seems to have problems with "disc-at-once" when running Nero. I still can burn but there are more problems. I have been searching for help on this error and can not find any solutions.

Thanks in advance,
