Bingo. Same thing just happened to me for a minute

Edit- in that case, try a different IDE cable. I had a bad one recently and same thing happened.

Could the cables be bad?? What happens if you unplug all the drives and attempt to boot/POST??

EDIT: I"ll be here a little while now. No more distractions.
