Yes it's seen by the BIOS, but i've tried just about every jumper set up that i can try.

It take's an age for the HD to be detected during the splash screen, it still seem's to me that it's a jumper configuration issue.

Also why would it work for around 6 weeks (after i split the drive into 2 partitions) without the tiniest hint of a problem?

But prior to splitting the drive i would often get the "pri slave hdd error", i'd reboot then i wouldn't see that error for a while.
