That depends on a few things, i.e. version of Windows, whether or not your driver comes with a seperate program for setting the DMA mode (SIS chipsets often do), etc...

If you're using Windows 2000 (probably XP too), got to device manager, expand (double click) IDE/ATAPI Controllers, then double click either "Primary Channel" or "Secondary Channel" depending on which your CD drive is connected to (most likely secondary) then click the "Advanced" tab and make sure the transfer is "DMA if available".

Otherwise, maybe your CD drive isn't very good at DAE. What drive is it?
