I would suggest that you check the configuration of your system and possibly look at purchasing a new disk controller.
You may have not set a master device on the IDE chain, which means that there is no master at all. There should be one master, and the rest should be slaves.
This can be very confusing, and I understand that you are getting frustrated. Take a deep breath and then look at the system again and go slow, searching for what you missed.
Do you see the devices in the BIOS of your system? If not, this is the first issue to check out. Also, don't forget about powering each device and making sure that your power supply can support all of the devices; it may be time to buy a new power supply.
Best of luck.
