Windows XP won't install Secondary IDE Channel

[pootangpie]

I have been trying to increase my dvd ripping speeds but I had no luck, so I tried deleting my secondary IDE Channel inorder to force both my dvd rom drive and dvd burner into DMA mode, (they were in PIO). But when i restarted my computer Windows XP said " Cannot install Hardware, IDE CHANNEL, Driver not intended for platform". What should i do?

Download the latest ide drivers for your motherboard and install them.
