first you need to check and make sure that it is being rcognized by your bios if your bios doesnt see it then it will never work. If the bios doesnt see it check your ide or sata cables and power cables. Last make sure that your setting are correct in your bios in some older bios there are size limits on the hard drives that it will support.
