Stupid question, but did you plug power into the ide adapter device?

yes,
btw it is not a stupid question

There is a lot of compatibility issues with those adapters and the CF cards, they are also prone to be not seated properly. Try PIO mode or try disabling DMA mode. They also have a lot of motherboard compatibility issues.
