I have two hard drives. One partitioned with windows and data. The other for backups.

The primary (windows and data) seems to have kicked the bucket. Tried it on two different computers and the bios isn't recognizing the device. When the computer turns on it hangs when detecting the IDE drives. Then my computer just skips and tries to boot off the network.

Anyone have any ideas? If I can't get the drive to work I think I'll install windows onto the secondary drive and then install the primary into one of those USB HDD things and try to recover the data that way.

I've got some pictures if required (of bios). I'm not putting them here right now because I'm posting from phone.
