HI all,

My seagate 20gb hardrive decided to not get detected in the BIOS all of a sudden. I did install a new drive (seagate 80gb) and relegated my 20gb to primary slave. Thing is, the bios can't see it anymore. I then make it master to the same setup i used to have before the new drive, same deal. When i feel the drive it does have power running through it (due to vibrations) and sounds normal. What the hell could have happened??

I assume you did the obvious and tried another IDE cable. Also double check that the jumpers are in the right place.
