I had a Intel driver for IDE. I have installed VIA drivers for the new motherboard. When I boot with the drive on the new mobo. I get the Windows logo screen then a BSOD with boot disk inaccessible. Should I have uninstalled the Intel driver?

If your motherboard is based on the Intel chipset, definitely "yes".
What is your motherboard brand, name and model?
The code is 8363A-686B-6A6LMJ19C-00. I think it is a Jetway. BTW is it normal for a Thunderbird Athlon to reach 50C?
The latest Via drivers shuold be good for this VIA KT133/A motherboard from Jetway:

Jetway has these downloads available also, if you need them: http://www.j-mark.com/dl/dl.html
But your problem lies in the comment where you mention a previous motherboard. If Windows was already installed to take into account this other MB, then you'll have to run a repair installation of Windows to get it working again.
Just boot from your Windows CD and choose Repair when asked.

I have got the computer booted using my hard drive controller card and then changing to the motherboards controllers. I first booted with the card not connected to any drives and its driver got installed and then I could boot with it.
Its much hotter than I've seen with Pentium 3s which will crash at not much more than 30C. PowerLeaps SlotWonder 1.4GHz Celeron runs fine with only its small copper heatsink.
