It is connected directly to the mobo yes.

That is the link to the "jumper" patch.
incase I didn't say...I can't use the patch because it doesn't detect
my HDD....bit of a catch 22 really.

User's manual:
http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/sock754/k8v_se_dx/e1872_k8v_se_deluxe.pdf
Page 43 - Set the "OnChip SATA Boot Rom" to 'Enabled'
Page 44 - Set the "OnBoard Promise Controller" to 'Enabled'
Next set the "Operating Mode" to 'Onboard IDE Operate Mode'
If as I understand you "Do Not" want to operate in a "RAID"
mode and only boot from a single SATA drive then on page
5-27 you do not have a need to enter the VIA Tech RAID BIOS Utility
unless you have already have created a RAID array and need to
break/delete the RAID array (see page 5-30).
To connect your SATA drive see the diagram on page 2-3
specifically the two SATA connector labeled SATA1 and SATA2
which are located next to the VIA VT8237 chip.
Note: You may need at least one SATA drive connected for
the sub-set options to appear.
Also this board only supports SATA-I transfer speeds (150 MB/S)
so if your have a new drive or drives that are rated as
SATA-II or SATA 300 look for a jumper setting on the hard drive
to force the new hard drive back to SATA-I mode.

Thanks for all your help but this is not the manual for my board. I
have the K8V and not the K8V SE DX...They may be similar but for for
all intents and purposes they are like chalk and cheese when it comes
to the set up of SATA...I wish my BIOS showed some of these
settings...I'd have no doubt the drive would be up and running by now.

OK JS...Thanks for all your help...
I've managed to sort it now..and I'll explain how incase you are
wondering and for others that may be in a similar situation in the
future. (I've read too many posts over the past few days without
closure it's unreal!)
I still couldn't get the drive to be detected on my normal SATA ports
so I plugged it into Promise as I stated before and let it set up an
array (Performance)...I then copied the Promise drivers from my ASUS
CD onto a floppy and stuck in the XP CD and let it start setup. I
pressed F6 to install the RAID drivers when requested and then Setup
saw my array. Setup them formatted the drive (took hours!) and then
installed Windows on it....
None of this is clear to me...How can I have an "array" with one
drive? It all seems to be functioning correctly. I can also see my old
IDE drive and will now start to copy all my wanted files.
Thanks for your input....

I could not find the K8V so I used the next best thing
hoping it was close enough to your motherboard.
ASUS servers where down for a period of time hindering
my effort also.
