Playing again eh ? or The C What If you were in playing in the machine BIOS (Setup) you may have disabled the secondary IDE interface. I presume you have tried the three finger salute. You said the machine doesn't recognize your drives, where are they not recognized ? If they are missing from the POST then you have either uncabled, unplugged or disabled the interface they are connected to, the chance of both drives failing at the same time is small. Other ways to screw up a secondary IDE port include adding new devices, tweaking settings you have never seen before and ignoring the "Are you sure ?" messages from the Evil Empire. Check your CMOS settings to make sure that both IDE ports are enabled, if you were working inside the case for any reason, check the ribbon cable connections to your drives, if you added a new device, take it out.
