If memory serves, an IDE (ATA) PCI card is supposed to recognize the attached devices and translate them into something the CPU can recognize. Are you sure that your card is able to recognize the drive? Perhaps the card's support driver has corrupted?
This has been something I've suspected as the possible problem. So there IS a driver on the card! My fear is that this driver may be corrupted and that the new HD won't be recognized either. I'd like to be prepared for this possibility. Can this driver be re-installed easily? Is it a ROM flash procedure? Can someone explain how to do this to an Ultratek/66 that has been converted to a VST? ASP and Silverling Pro list this card info.-
