When ever I have a problem with drivers that say they work with xp and don't, I use the win2k drivers. Works every time.

I may be crazy, but I'm not stupid...

Did you upgrade to service pack 2? I'm thinking that service pack 2 may have updated native drivers. What I would do is uninstall the old one and reinstall it if Windows dectects that it has a driver for it.
