really ?
i don't think so !
may be you partition table is corrupt.. well the most familier thing is that check from BiOS that if you HDD is configured and dectected currectly at bios level !

Do you happen to have some SATA drive or some RAID configurations ? ... normally if HDD is detected at BIOS level, then its usable anyhow...
