Posted by Washu If you are connecting it to the onboard Promise controler's ports and not the chipset's ports you need to check the Promise's bios config, not the computer's. You would also need to use a floppy to install the driver for the Promise card durring the Windows install. Also in the main bios or the Promise bios there may be a setting to change the card from raid to single drive mode. To be 100% sure, connect the drive to one of the chipset's ports and see if it works that way. If not you'll have to see which of either the drive or MB has failed.

I don't have the board version with the Promise RAID controller, I have the model with only 2 SATA I ports.
I tried it with another SATA II drive, tried with different cables, and it still does not work. Are there certain jumpers for enabling SATA or for enabling compatibility for SATA I/II
