There may be issues with a SATA drive and a IDE drive co-existing on the system. First check your BIOS Advanced settings for "combined" or "enhanced" mode SATA. If that does not sort it out, try removing the "master" jumper on the IDE drive as this is reported to work too (can't think why though). This Google search turned up a few leads which may apply in your case too. Hope this helps. Cheers. Spexx.
