HELP! Setting up a slave drive!
ok here we go.
I have a dell computer with windows XP home edition. I want to add my hard drive from my older gateway computer running windows 98
So far....
I have installed the hard drive
XP said new hardware found, I installed it
Shows up as a slave drive in the BIOS!
However it will not show up under disk drives in My Computer!
I was looking at device manager and it show up in their as well, but says it is the C: drive as well and the partition style is Master Boot Record (MBR)
I think that is my little problem
Any idea. Please help. I need this to back up my files so I can reboot my pc....
BTW the slave drive is QUANTIUM FIREBALLlct15 07 - thats what they call it in the bios and device manager
thanksDustin

USE partition Magic to rename the drive to a different letter, like.. D:/
