You might try two things. First, put the aux disk controller card into another slot. If that doesn't work, try installing w/o the aux card installed, and reinstall it after completeion. (if...).
Er, I opened up my computer to try out this advice and found no aux disk controller card. Indeed, all three drives are cabled to the motherboard in various places. The ones for the 120 gig HD look completely unlike those the 80 gig HD has, though; I'm guessing it's not actually IDE, or at least it's a different kind of IDE. Or something. (Hardware isn't my strong suit.) Anybody else want to take a stab? I can repost all my info to date if you've lost track...
