First -- check your BIOS version...while searching I saw you'd been in several other forums with this exact post? If there is configuration that needs doing in the BIOS-- it must be done first or it will never work.

I had posted in other forums, but I didn't seem to get the response like I have here. That's why I saythat this is the best forum I have been to.
The BIOS version is:
CR94510J.86A.0031.2006.1212.1648
I am in the BIOS right now, is there something you would like me to check.
I guess I was thinking that since it has an OS on it right now, everything must be configured.
I'm definitely not very BIOS savvy!!!

From what I saw online... there is supposed to be some config settings in the BIOS for SATA-drives-- I'm not real familiar with Intel Bioses
generally there's a first page with hardware listed
Then there's an advanced settings page-- look in there for SATA controllers or SATA settings... you may have to do some searching for this.

I will see if I can find any other data.

You may have to change the settings from Automatic Mode at the top-- and the ATA/IDE settings next down.Look for SATA modes in anysetting
What is set as primary Boot device under boot?
