I've had my computer running on this haddrive for 3 years with no problems, but recently I bought a new harddrive and deleted the partition off my old one, but the new one wasn't the proper type so I returned it. Upon plugging in the old harddrive and trying to reinstall Windows tells me there is no HD installed and to check if it's plugged in correctly.
It's a Deskstar HDs728080pla380 80GB SATA harddrive and I'm using the SATA1 port on the mobo to the HD and the plug from the power supply that looks like a wider version of the SATA cable's head. I also have the old fashioned 4 prong powersupply plug but I do not have that plugged in.
Halp!
