I am sorry for the bad haiku that I sent in response earlier. Poor attempt at humor. 

Your symptoms sound a lot like a problem some people are having ripping audio from some CD-ROMS, in a system using a VIA IDE controller. If it's the same problem, I can tell you that this has been around for a while, and your best bet may be to try swapping out hardware. It's not a simple problem, and some CD-ROMS may work and not others. Try a different brand CD-ROM drive (e.g. Lite-On), or try an Intel based board.
