No Boot, using PCI ATA 133 IDE Card

Hello,
I need some help. I have an ABIT AG8 motherboard, just installed a new
power supply (Enermax 535 W, which is working) and 4 harddrives
connected to a PCI ATA 133 IDE Card since my motherboard only has one
IDE slot (which is connected to my CD-ROM and DVD-RW drives). My
computer will not boot (no system beep, nothing) if all 4 harddrives
are connected. I have gotten it to boot if I only have the boot drive
connected directly to the motherboard. I have also gotten it to boot
with the 2 cd-roms connected to the motherboard and 2 harddrives
connected to the one side of the card (master, slave). Do I have a bad
PCI card? Something else? I'll try anything. Thanks to anyone who can
offer suggestions.
