1. Does BIOS see all four devices?
When you boot up, watch the BIOS output. If it doesn't see all four devices, then your OS never will.

2. Warm boot your computer.
This is especially true with CS. Hook up all four devices, turn on the computer, then ctl-alt-del after the BIOS loads and before the OS loads.

3. Don't use CS.
Set your masters to master and your slaves to slave. Don't use auto detect in BIOS, go to "Detect IDE devices" and accept what it finds.

After that, you are probably right about the controller being bad. I hope this helps.
