Is an O/S installed?
If so have you set the hdd as the first/primary boot device?

no os installed. it wont let me i keep getting the fatal error system has halted message =/ im runnin outa options
first stage of post bios when it scans for HDD fails but it recognizes in the bios that the hdd is there.
also i listened to the beep codes i have (AMI [ameritrend]) n i am getting 2 beeps. 1 initial beep n a beep right around when it fails to boot.
