OK. The problem is that your hardware supports ATA100. If your HD is old
you cannot connect it because it not run.

Connectors (buses) are differents for 33/66 and ATA100.

Sorry for my english, if you have any question about hardware contact
with me and you do the exact question and I reply you. My problem is
explain in english.
