Hi! Trying to install and "old" drive for small backups into my PC, its IDE and so is my floppy drive and CD / DVD drive. My main HDD is SATA, mobo DFI NF3 250Gb.
When I plug in the drive in question, on the secondary IDE channel XP refuses to show my cd drive, I can here it spin up but it never reads. POSTs slowly too. Will it help if I put it on the same cable as the CD, in which case should it be 1st or 2nd on the cable? Drive works fine BTW.
TIA!
