Has anyone any suggestions?
Thanks,

I'd try a different cable for the drive. If that doesn't fix it
the controller on the motherboard is probably bad.
Hi!
If you are using a 40-pin cable and changing to another 40-pin doesn't
help, test with a 80-pin cable. FreeBSD can be a bit picky about that.
I would say that 40-conductor (not pin!) cable detection feature may not
work on the particular chipset. I've no idea what kind of ATA controller does
Asus A7V266 use, but on my Asus P5W DH under fresh RELENG_6 40-conductor cable
detection works correctly on the ICH7 PATA channel, while doesn't work on the
PATA channel which is served by the JMicron JMB363 controller. Here is an
example of connecting a UDMA66 drive to JMB363 by 40-conductor cable:
atapci0: <JMicron JMB363 SATA300 controller> port 0xac00-0xac07,0xa880-0xa883,
0xa800-0xa807,0xa480-0xa483,0xa400-0xa40f mem 0xff6fe000-0xff6fffff irq 17 at
device 0.0 on pci2
atapci0: AHCI Version 01.00 controller with 2 ports detected
ata2: <ATA channel 0> on atapci0
ata3: <ATA channel 1> on atapci0
ata4: <ATA channel 2> on atapci0
