Recently I went out and bought a 500 GB WD drive. I put it in, bios sees it, but when I start up. The drive doesn't exist in my computer.
It's on cable select on the second plug on the IDE cable.
What OS ?

Windows server 2003
Right click on 'My Computer', hit 'Manage' and select 'Disk Management'. You new drive should be in the list, you'll need to right click and format it before it can be used.

It's not on the list.
You mentioned it was set to cable select on the 2nd connection of the IDE channel. Have you tried setting it to slave?

Yeah, the machine just freezes at the post screen.
It says "Cisnet blah blah blah" and it just sits there.
Does that when ever a drive is on slave. I'm not sure why..
