Are you sure you got this one right?  I could believe this line:

	VirtualHDIRQ=off	(or false or 0)

but the one you gave is completely new to me.  Presumably Windows ignores
settings it doesn't recognize, so it may be that you mis-spelled it and
the other things you did fixed your problem.  On the other hand, if this
really is a valid setting, could you post the description of what it does?
