Righto - my PC recently carked it - the hard drive died on it, luckily I had a 2nd sata drive in it that I hadnt yet used - now I usually get my mate to rebuild pc's etc for me but he can't do it at the moment for me. Sooooo can anyone give me an idiots guide as to what to do - basically the PC is already built, I just have to unplug the knackered drive, plug in the 2nd hard drive and do what?
Do I need to set 2nd Hard drive from slave to master or something first?
I have the install disc for the motherboard and XP discs.....now what do I do and in what order? My mate mentioned making a back-up on a floppy or something to that effect from the install disc - erm..wha?
Do I need to give you any more info re system specs btw or is it pretty much the same principle regardless?
Help cos I wanna see if I can make the computer go zoooom and therefore break my mates evil stranglehold on sorting my pc's out for me!!
Cheers
