hi

have you checked all your bios settings.

try loading fail safe defaults, may also be called default bios settings.

make sure your SATA controller is on in the bios too, that is if you are using a SATA drive.

 

as for the aux light being on all the time, do you mean the power on light on the case, or an LED on the motherboard itself.

 

if it is the front power light then it maybe a PSU issue, could also be an issue with the front panel wiring and/or a motherboard fault.

try the bios settings first, we can then look at the light issue after
