OK, here is the latest happenings. After reading the question as to whether the BIOS detected the drive, I checked it out and it did not recognize anything. I made sure they were all set to AUTO DETECT and restarted, still did not detect anything.

Then I started thinking about the master/slave jumper. I took out the jumper and reversed a cable, both the CD ROM and the CDRW were recognized. So one problem solved. NOW, I still can't fdisk, it is still saying there are no fixed disks present. That was after I booted the computer with the boot disk only. Once I put in the Windows Installation cd, it began the process and then went to a blue screen stating that it basically can't locate the hard drive. Is it possible that my jumper settings are STILL wrong? This just baffles me because it recognized the cd rom drivers but still no luck with the hard drive. I don't understand it either because at one point it asked if I wanted to boot off of the CD ROM or off of the Hard Disk. Confusing.. Any help w/this would be very appreciated!
