As it turns out, Microsoft calls the problem a feature "by design" and claims the purpose of this behavior is to prevent potential data loss due to the usage of an incorrect IDE cable for the faster UDMA modes.
This behavior may occur if the following conditions exist:
You are using an Ultra Direct Memory Access (UDMA) controller with your computer.
You are using a standard 40-wire connector cable to connect the UDMA drive to the controller instead of the required 80-wire, 40-pin cable.
The basic input/output system (BIOS) is set to force the faster UDMA modes.
To resolve this behavior, Microsoft recommends replacing the 40-wire cable with an 80-wire UDMA cable,
-or-
Try loading the 'Fail-Safe' BIOS default and reactivate the most currently used options such as USB Support.
