If anyone is e-mailing the answer to this, and related "how do I get 
2 IDE drives to run off of the same controller" questions, please
post them too!  I have two IDE drives, both of which will run on my
controller by itself, but when I hook both up the machine hangs.  There
aren't any obvious settings to change except in the CMOS.
