      The message is self explanatory. Boot into the BIOS screens and verify all the drive controllers are enabled there.

      If the drive is an IDE/PATA type (wide ribbon cable) verify the jumper on the drive is set correctly.

      In addition, I have seen some motherboards that have some SATA ports that DO NOT support a bootable device. In that case you would need to connect to a port that does support bootable devices.
