Try one more time
Set the new 80gig as master (see the jummpers setting on the HD)
Plug the ribbon cable into the number one slot on the MB and the red line to the 
number one pin on the MB and the HD..
Then reboot in to your BIOS and then run Det.the HD item on the bios list.
It should find it and must b/4 you can use it...
If it finds it your set to save and exit the BIOS setup.
If it Can't find it replace drive..but don't set it for NONE
You can some times use the User Define to set it up, and the setting for it should 
be on the HD also..
But with most of the computers now days should pick it up with out your help.
