Greetings, people from TG Forumz...how are you? :)

Well, I've got a real problem (at least, in my opinion) with my HDD speed capacity, in my MB configurations: I've got a Asus K8N4-E Deluxe MB, and a Samsung HD080HJ SATA HDD (a SATA II HDD model), by which I could use its 3.0 Gbps speed to run my applications and games.
However, BIOS doesn't recognize it as a SATA II HDD, even without that jumper that makes HDD to run in a 1.5 Gbps speed. I don't know what to do anymore, because I've tried everything I know about installing that kind of HDD...
Before I got that Asus MB, I'd got a Gigabyte MB (GA-K8VM800M Rev 2), which doesn't support 3.0 Gbps HDD, but I'd already got that Samsung drive, then I used the jumper on it to work itself fine.

These are the current hardware features from my computer:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MB Asus K8N4-E Deluxe (BIOS Revision = 1010);
AMD Sempron 2800+ 754 Socket;
Samsung HD080HJ (SpinPoint Series, supporting 3.0 Gbps);
2048 MB of DDR-RAM;
VGA e-VGA GeForce 6600 GT;
LG DVD-RW drive;
AOpen DVD-RAM drive;
Floppy disk drive
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

What should I do to solve this problem? If somebody gets an answer for that, I would thank a lot for the help!
