I'll try VISTA CODE 15.
http://forums.techguy.org/hardware/936523-optiarc-dvdrw-ad7200s-vista-drive.html is found and it appears it's a cross posted.
The added clue is the 350 Watt power supply. Let's see what else is in the box? Can't find it.
Given only the supplied clues it looks like the usual overtaxed power supply or a driver issue.
Sadly, the posts you made never reveal what machine this is so that's all I can offer.

hi,
please help! my PC is now 15 months old. after 6 months i was getting freeze ups. manufacturer helped me flash BIOS and check HDD. i also opened the case and ensured all cables were secure.
i checked device manager and this is the message that was coming up:
The device 'Optiarc DVD RW AD-7200S ATA Device' (IDE\CdRomOptiarc_DVD_RW_AD-7200S_________________1.0B____\5&3afaca79&0&1.0.0) disappeared from the system without first being prepared for removal.
along with cdrom code 15 errors and atapi code 11 errors. after securing cables all went ok... for another few months. just before warranty was due to end, i bit the bullet and sent machine back.
they eventually could replicate fault (huh? why couldnt they see error codes?)but didnt know the problem.
eventually, i am told, they swapped out MB, cables, DVDRW all to no avail and finally said it was a faulty HDD, which they replaced, tested machine and sent back.
all seems to have been well since end april until yesterday, when i saw the symptom return - HDD stays on constant, error are in device manager, same as before (see above).
i flashed the DVD firmware this morning and all seemed well until an hour or so ago... so here i am again.
its not started freezing yet, but no doubt it will escalate. any ideas? its doing my head in :o(
