Try autodetecting it in BIOS setup and play with the LBA/LARGE/Normal/... option manually, in the settings. Either that or your drive isn't detected properly at all and perhaps the board needs a BIOS update. If your "new" board really is a new one, I don't think that's the case but you can try it anyway. Or find a similar system to your old one to plug it into temporarily just to recover your data, and then start over on your new system.
