I have a Gateway 2000 GP6-233 with a mainboard model
Intel AL440LX and BIOS version 4A4LL0X0.15A.0023.P18 and a
Maxtor
Diamond Max Plus 80 GB ATA/133 Hardrive model 6Y080P0 that
don't agree.
My BIOS refuses to find the operation system already installed on the
hard drive. The jumper is already set at master. When the
computer is
turned on, it can't find the operating system and when in BIOS the
harddrive, plugged into either IDE port isn't recognized.
I know I know...
it's old, but how can I solve this problem?

if the HD is not seen in the BIOS, then theres no way its gonna boot up. Are you sure youve plugged the power cable tightly? Also make sure the data cable is plugged in tightly...
