Nothing funny about up all night! Resetting DMA changes the way windows allows the drive to communicate with your PC. Windows does this when it detects errors in the data the drive is sending. The fact that this keeps happening is of more concern. Forcing Windows to reset the mode to DMA won't hurt anything at all though.
