If the BIOS doesn't see the drive, you don't need to worry about the drivers, because you aren't getting that far. I'd try it on another SATA socket, or even on one of the RAID ones and see if the BIOS ever sees it. Trying a different cable is also a good idea. I presume that the drive is spinning up, right?
