A 10 inch IDE cable is like asking for trouble. The IDE interface is unbuffered and resides directly on the data bus, which means it's very sensitive. Shielding won't help much, since it's also a matter of capacitance/bus load.
First thing I would do would be try a shorter (10cm max) IDE cable.
Are you using something on the cart port?
Which control panel are you using? Cops or the patched version of XControl?
