Hmm, I've unplugged the PC every time I played with the cables (changing
positions, etc) but never had it work.  It's an older Compaq Deskpro EN.
Maybe time for to update my hardware/PC with something more recent. 

Thanks

I had a motherboard that would do this. If I killed power to the system for 
~15 seconds, it would go back to accepting everything. What I though was 
wrong was the controller developed a problem and if I cut the power to the 
system such that the system voltages bled off, it would go back to accepting

ata66 cables.
