Installing a P4S533 & need to know which programs I need to install off of the cd that came with it. Do I really need to install the SiS BusMaster PCI IDE driver & AGP Drivers? I disabled the LAN so I assume I don't need to install that driver as well.
Thanks in advance.

I never bothered with it. I just grabbed all the latest versions directly from SiS.

AGP and IDE drivers need to be installed for maximum performance.

If you're running XP Pro, DO NOT INSTALL THE IDE DRIVERS. I found out the hard way that they hose XP and you'll hate life in short order. I heard SiS posted a newer IDE driver on the web, but I haven't heard any feedback on it as of yet. I DO recommend you install the AGP driver though, but do that after you've installed the video card driver.
