Garr proper noob question

I'm putting my pc together tonightall being well. But just have a question because it's been a long long time since i built a pc with more than one HDD.
I have a 250gig and a 500gig HDD for the build, i'll be putting the OS on the 250gig, when i load up vista will it be easy enough to choose the correct HDD? I'd have thought it'll give me a choice at some point but just wanted to make sure..... Or is there something i'll have to configure in the bios? It's all going on an ABIT ip35 pro

Thanks

Personally I just connect the single drive you're putting O/S on, then when it's all installed and running I'd then connect the new drive and let windows pick it up.

Heh sounds like a plan

Will do that then, thanks.

That's the way to do it, especially if you have data on the other drive.
