 Try switching 0 and 1 drive (C: and D:) to the secondary IDE cable,then switch
 secondary devices to primary,see what results come from it.If none are
present,
 you probably have a bad controller,you can try locating the controller in
device
 mgr.,then select,update drivers.Or go to mfg web site to see if any exist,P
lll
 based board is somewhat obsolete.
