I decided to move my computer in a new case and after completing the IDE drives are not detected so that leads me to believe:
1. The cables are duff
2. the drives are duff
3. the controllers on the mobo are duff
4. the BIOS needs an update
5. Or I put them in the wrong place.
It's like 10pm and it's too late to sort it now so I'll do it tomorrow. If there is a big problem it could mean about a week without a computer but I have a few others so I should be fine. The floppy disc is fine and the motherboard itself is tip top. As is the PSU and the drives. I think updating the BIOS should be easy if I can find a floppy disc to put the data on. My fear is the IDE controllers are busted which is a huge problem.
Generally all I did was move everything into a new case so I think I put the cables in the wrong places. No need to set jumpers and whatnot.
