Take the jumper(s) off altogether for a default configuration as one last attempt. Chances are if it ain't spinning - It's dead but there could be a conflict between the data transfer speeds of the motherboard and disk. Have you checked if it spins up with and without the IDE cable attached? Oh - One other check - The IDE pins are easy to bend - Make sure you haven't bent one or two and shorted something out.

At the end of teh day, unless there is something tyou realy need on that disk though, IDE just is not worth taking time over any more.

Good luck
