I recall someone on this list previously saying they had to leave all the jumpers off a drive in order to get it to work. Believe it may have also been a beige & WD combo? Have you tried a different cable? Is this plugged into IDE bus 0 or 1? If bus 1 do you have something plugged into bus 0. Believe this is a must on beige. -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
