Did you set the hard drive jumper to master? Don't! This is common problem
with many hard drives. There is often a poorly documented "Single" setting.
Often "Cable Select" or removing the jumper will fix. You are using 80 wire
IDE cable with HD at end connector aren't you? Did the IDE driver make drive
access PIO mode? This sometimes happens. Look in hardware device manager IDE
Primary IDE Controller Properties and see what Transfer Mode is. If not UDMA
Mode 5 or is PIO mode, uninstall driver, re-boot, and plug and play will
re-install.
