I bet the IDE devices through the new Maxtor controller card becomes
first detected devices and thus collides with previous device order. Two
possibilities: a) try to change the device order through BIOS setting
(if that is possible), on board controllers have to be primary b) change
devices in /etc/grub.conf and /etc/fstab to fit with new controller
order.
