    Do you have OS Installed on SATA yet? OR you want to install OS on ATA and use SATA as SLAVE? Which OS you will install, the procedure will depend on all!

    check the jumpers.. make one "primary" and other "slave" (hdd and dvd/rw)... if not make both "cable select" and plug the data cable..

    I think it'll help you...

    cheers..
