You have to go through these subkeys and check the DriverDesc value until you find the proper IDE channel.
Delete MasterIdDataChecksum or SlaveIdDataChecksum, depending on whether the device in question is attached as master or slave, but it can't actually hurt to delete both. Reboot. The drive DMA capabilities will be redetected.
If you're wary of deleting the values altogether, it is sufficient to empty the content of these values. But you can also delete the values entirely - Windows will automatically recreate them anyway, with new content.
what does this actually do? and by deleting these files, all will be automatically reset to the normal settings as before.

The values you are deleting are windows way of keeping track of what hardware your computer has in it. When you reboot windows will automagically determine the hardware and restore the default settings. Some program must have changed the value and in doing so screwed things up as far as burning speed was concerned.
