Please give us the Hardware Specs of your system and what Windows you're using ..
but A few things to check
1. Boot From a Windows Boot Disk (with CD-ROM Support) and check the drive in DOS
if you don't have such disk go download this one.. :-) http://www.myshed.net/bootdisks/boot98se.exe
2. if it works from DOS and not in Windows
you can try disabling UDMA Support (in Device manager)
Use SFC.exe to check for corrupted Files (in win 98)
3. if it doesn't work in DOS - check the IDE cable and power cable. try disabling the UDMA in the BIOS.
hope you find it helpful.
and please, we can't guess the hardware specs of your system and wht windows you're running ..
