motherboard.. what SATA speed supported???

Specs in sig

I got a new HD and I believe the jumper is defaulted to 300MB/s but I have no clue. I'm having problems installing it so I think this could be the problem. How do I know what transfer speed my motherboard can handle? If I cant find information on it anywhere is there a way to test it out? By changing the jumper on the back of the hard drive maybe? The hard drive is just a standalone unit so there really is no explaining on what jumper setting is what. The model number is 7H500F0
And if i start messing around with the jumper could I damage something?

HAHA prob is fixed.

My mobo can only run SATA at 150MB/sec and the default on the drive was 300MB/s

Moved the jumper and it works now.

I was reading earlier someone said, "The most complicated problems have the easiest solutions." Couldn't be truer. Commence the downloading.
