Have you ever changed your computer's BIOS settings?

Check your hardware manual for the key that you must press while booting the computer to enter BIOS edit mode. Once you are in there, you'll be looking for some screen that mentions the hard disk or disk controller. You may find that it indicates that the drive is in "Enhanced" mode. Toggle this value to "Legacy" or whatever else that is not "Enhanced".

Be sure of the what value you are changing, mishandling your BIOS settings can cause you big headaches.
