Hard Disk Problem

I just took a hard drive out of an old computer and plugged it into my new one. It took a lot of twisting and pulling to do it, and I actually needed pliers for the power connector. When I plugged the hard drive back into the old computer, I got a "Insert system diskette and press Enter key to reboot" message. I unplugged all the other IDE devices and tried the hard drive on all the channels and couldn't get it to work. Is there anything I can try, or did I damage something?
 
It might spool up, it's pretty quiet if it does. I tried all the IDE connectors.
