i'd agree with jessica, check the jumpers again
if you're using the same ide cable for the dvd that you've used on other drives, and it works on other drives, the ide cable is fine, and if other drives work on the ide controller, the controller is fine too
those two reg keys wouldn't affect this prob, b/c if it's not being picked up in the bios, it's not going to be seen by windows at all
i have had this prob with an hdd before too, i'd plug it up, tried slave and cable select, neither would work, and it turned out the jumper on the master hdd was set wrong, once i set that right everything was fine
um, as a last resort try, plug a different power connector into it, it's worth a shot, sometimes one of my hdd's will go funky and if i plug another power cable into it it works fine, /me thinks i need a new psu
