Hi Geeks,
my system runs on Intel D865GBF motherboard, recently i bought a new Seagate SATA 320GB HDD, when i connected the HDD and checked the BIOS the first time, i was able to see the HDD name being displayed in slot 0, but after the OS got booted i was unable to see the disk in the computer management and partion magic, so i restarted the system and rechecked the BIOS, this time the SATA slot 0 was empty, please guide me on this
