Okay, here's the deal. Put new box together for my niece with the following components:
ASUS K8S-MX motherboard
Sempron 3100+ proc.
Western digital SATA 7200 rpm 80gb HD
Enermax 450w psu salvaged from another machine
512 pc3200 ram
Old toshiba cd rom prim ata as master
old floppy
Windows starts to do it's thing and then eventually tells me there is no hard drive present.
The drive is recognized in the bios
sata controller is enabled in the bios
I ran Western Digital utilities and the drive tests fine.
I have built several machines but never one with SATA.
Never had a problem before.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks in advance.
