Beware Intel & Asus IDE drivers for XP-Pro SP1

I used the Intel IDE (Intel 82801BA ultra ATA controler) drivers dated 4-10-02 supplied with Asus P4T533 Mobo (not digitally signed)for XP-Pro SP1 and had all kinds of game crashes and then when I installed Audigy 2 sound card, most of its software was crashing system or the DVD Player was pausing constantly while trying to play demo dvd disk. When I rolled back the drv to Intel 82801BA Bus Master IDE controler dated 7-1-01 in device manager all my problems were solved.
Hope this helps someone having same kind of problems or maybe prevents someone from using that Intel Driver in XP.
