You said the mobo can see the drive, but is the bios set to make the drive bootable? What about your linux rescue CD? There's a tool on there that does nothing more than boot and give you a metric s#!7 ton of information about the computer. Did you try that and see if it can see the drive? Chances are that if the SCD can't see it, then nothing else will which is usually indicative of a setup problem from your bios. The only time I saw that occur on my system was after I had installed my SATA but BEFORE I had told my chipset to use the drive plainly.
