on the assumption that you put in a new 80gb drive into an existing pc ...

are the correct cables attached and tight? if yes, are you using the original ribbon cable that came with the box or the ribbon cable that came with the drive? sometimes you need to test the cables to make sure your drive works ...

if you're sure that the cables are correct and are tight, try installing dos and see if it sees the drive ... i doubt that it will because the install programs look at the hardware from the bios perspective before it continues ... this way you can test if your drive is okay from a windows perspective ...

if the older drive still exists and still bootable, try replacing that back in the box and booting up ... if the box boots up without issues, your 80gb drive might actually be bad ...

PIIXIDE(4)						   BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual 						PIIXIDE(4)

NAME
piixide -- Intel IDE/SATA disk controllers driver SYNOPSIS
piixide* at pci? dev ? function ? flags 0x0000 DESCRIPTION
The piixide driver supports the Intel PIIX, PIIX3, PIIX4, and 82801 (ICH/ICH0/ICH2/ICH3/ICH4/ICH5/ICH6/ICH7/ICH8/ICH9/ICH10) IDE/SATA con- trollers and provides the interface with the hardware for the ata(4) driver. The 0x0002 flag forces the piixide driver to disable DMA on chipsets for which DMA would normally be enabled. This can be used as a debug- ging aid, or to work around problems where the IDE controller is wired up to the system incorrectly. SEE ALSO
ata(4), atapi(4), intro(4), pci(4), pciide(4), wd(4), wdc(4) BUGS
The timings used for the PIO and DMA modes for controllers listed above are for a PCI bus running at 30 or 33 MHz. This driver may not work properly on overclocked systems. BSD
