Serial ATA Drive Problems?

My Computer has an ASUS P4PE Motherboard that is running Windows XP Pro on a WDC 120 GB IDE Disk Drive.

I just purchased a WDC 250 GB Serial ATA Disk Drive, and even though the Computer's BIOS recognizes the Disk Drive, my Windows XP System cannot recognize the Disk Drive.

In my Computer's Windows Device Manager and under the SCSI and RAID Controllers the WinXP Promise FastTrak 376 Controller is listed.

How I can get my existing Windows XP Pro to recognize the WDC 250 GB Serial ATA Disk Drive?

After that, can I boot up my Computer in the DOS mode to use a Ghost Floppy to Ghost my existing WDC 120 GB IDE Disk Drive's "C" Partition to my new WDC 250 GB Serial ATA Disk Drive's "C" Partition.
