[QUOTE="bass_lover1, post: 6290041, member: 555256"] Unless all the OP did was replace the "faulty" HDD and everything else on the PC is the same, it's not going to boot. What I'm saying is, a HDD from another PC, will not boot with different hardware. You need to make sure both disks are on cable select (on the jumper), your current HDD should be on the master plug on the IDE cable, then put the old HDD on slave. Boot into your current OS, then you should be able to access the old one through windows explorer. [/QUOTE]
