And there is a weird thing my PCs manual says. It says, if you plan on installing a harddrive to take out the old one and place it on the secondary IDE controller as master and the new harddrive in the primary controller as slave???? Why is that?????? And do i have to do that??
Is this a brand name computer with a recovery CD/drive? that would be the only reason I can think of, off the top of my head,for this rather odd procedure.................does it give any other instructions? I am wondering if there isn't some software on your current drive to "ghost" its image onto the new one?
