My home computer died today.
So I went out and bought a new one but in came with Vista and SATA drives. I wanted to just plug in my IDE hard drive from my old machine but I understand that cannot be done anymore. So I bought an external drive box to have a USB output and bring the files over that way. But I cannot get the new machine to recognize the old drive. I cannot find any help online either.
I did remove the jumpers so the drive is not a master drive. I even tried it as a master drive but that did not work either. Anyone have an idea?
