ATA/133 controller card error

I bought an Ultra ATA/133 PCI controller card to unlock the full capacity of my Maxtor 250 GB HD, and after I installed the card, I turned my computer on and got an error at the boot-screen which says the controller card isn't being initialized. I bypassed the error at first to install the driver for the card anyway, but everytime I reboot I get the same error. I've tried downloading & installing Windows XP SP1 to address this problem, but it didn't fix it either. I've tried switching the controller card to a different PCI slot as well, but same error. The error reads exactly this: "ERROR... Expansion ROM not initialized - PCI Mass storage controller in SLOT 1... Bus:01, Device:08, Function:00" My computer's specs. are: HP Pavilion ['01], Intel Celeron 701 MHz, 320 MB RAM, Windows XP PRO.
