What are the error messages, if any?
Try connecting the hard drive:
- Using another cable
- To another IDE/SATA port on the motherboard
Make sure it's getting power - try another molex connector.
Try another hard drive with the same cable/port. If this works then the original hard drive may be damaged. Check that its connecting pins (if IDE) are all intact - none missing or bent.
Detailed troubleshooting tips for IDE drives / SATA drives. G0 -
