Can't get new computer to Boot up

[BH2]

Guys,
I would appreciate some advice please. After reading alot of material I
decided to build a computer. Using an EPox 9NDA3J Board, an AMD Athlon
3500+,
2 GB's of ram. 1x W/Digital IDE 320 gig HDD, 2 x W/Digital 320 gig SATA 2
HDD's, sound card, graphics card etc. Partitioned the Drive and Installed
windows Xp Home,( I made the IDE HDD Master and no Slave device) rebooted
the computer but I can't seem to get it to boot from the HDD with Xp on it,
which I assume is the IDE HDD.
During the initial POST Boot checks The Hdd's are detected as follows:
IDE Chan 0 Master WDC3200JB-OOKPA0
IDE Chan 0 Slave: None
detects both SATA drives as Sata 1 and Sata 2.
Then it gets to verifying DMI pool data, but will not go pas Boot From CD

I have set the BIOS Boot sequence as Follows:
HDD Boot priority is IDE HDD, Sata1, Sata2
CD Rom Priority is CH M DVD Ram Drive, CH S ATAPI CD-R/RW
Boot Sequence is:
1st Boot CDROM
2nd Boot HDD
3rd Boot HDD

And too Boot(sorry about the Pun), I can register windows. Would really
appreciate you help on this guys
Thanks and Regards
Bob

Try disconnecting both SATA hard drives to see if that helps.
There could be a cable problem, BIOS issue, etc.
