I suspect that you are going to find this drive is more trouble than it's worth: http://knowledge.seagate.com/articles/en_US/FAQ/194055en?language=en_US
decided to get a new drive, damn that was annoying, thanks for the help though, recommend checking EXTREMELY carefully to anyone checking that your components are not only compatable with motherboard but also the power supply as i had some problems with my graphics card also.
