    Translation of "this nonsense"......

    Your CDROM can not handle the full throttle auto-tuning, the is a problem
    with the device's firmware or other hardware. If your drive behaved well
    and responded correctly to the active-hardware correction of the BIOS
    settings, it would have never barffed the message.

    It most likely belongs on a capablities list of short comings.
