I am trying to install a 80G WD hard drive, and i have it patched up to the 2.a version that supports drives over 64G and has a date of 08-21-2000 on it. The problems is that once i connect this drive as primary or slave the system boots , sees the drive and then locks up after it goes thru the disk search.
I have no idea of what to do next and could use any help or ideas.
80GB: Microstar (MSI) MS6119
Do you have drive jumpers set properly? If the drive is the only device on the cable, it must be configured as single, not master.

Yes i have the jumpers set right, i have set it as the primary master, i have set it up as the primary slave with a 4g HD as the primary master. I have chosen the cable select setting....everything that the book has said i have done..

Well i was able to get the bios tricked into seeing the HD, and once it saw it I was able to load the software that came with it and XP saw it then.
Thanks to everyone for all the help i was so lost.
