I've got a weird problem and I just can't figure out what's happening. I built a new machine last week and got everything working. Installed Windows XP and all the drivers that came with the Gigabyte GA-EP45T-UP3P. Then I switched everything off and plugged in the old IDE hard disk from my old PC so I could get the data copied over to the new Sata disk. Since then it doesn't matter what I do PC doesn't recognise any IDE device. I've tried 3 IDE hard disks, a DVD-RW and a DVDROM. I've tried 2 or 3 different IDE cables. Set the jumpers to master and slave. Hard disks and the DVDs are getting power because disks have a vibration feeling to them when I touch them and I can open/close the DVD drives.
BIOS detects the hard disk but it shows a size of 1220GB while the disks are only 80GB.
DVD drives were getting detected as Floppy drive in windows (nothing in BIOS) so in BIOS I've disabled the floppy drive.
Please help because this is driving me nuts. Thanks
