IDE Hard Drive problem

hans5849 · 05-03-2008, 01:59 PM

So I found some old ram for my computer and after a bit of effort I got it installed. I had to clear the CMOS for it to boot. Now though my IDE hard drive that held all my music doesn't show up in Device Manager or Computer Management, my CD roms show up though. The BIOS detects it and the bios settings are for Enhanced Mode allowing for 6 IDE drives. I have 5 hard drives and two CD roms, before this everything worked. Even when I had 6 hard drives and two CD roms they all worked.

Hardware:
P4 3.0E
3GB DDR Ram
abit IC7-G
