Check the bios settings. That is an SATA drive, you may need to enable
legacy support to get things working. I had problems with an IDE
chipset on the new G33 intel boards I got recently. The solution was to
buy SATA drives (samsung actually, same brand as you), and set the bios
to treat them as legacy/ide emulated. It has nothing to do with the
drive itself, but rather EIDE/SATA controller chipsets.
Hope that helps,
Mark
