I have an HP Pavillion media center m8330f quad core PC. I have 640 gb of HD space (sata), and running 6 gb of ram. I am running Windows Vista premium home edition with SP1 installed.
There is a place on my motherboard to install an IDE HD and I have a 2 year old, never used 300GB Western Digital IDE I would like to utilize.
I connected the 300GB HD on the IDE port and it is being recognized as the Primary drive and not allowing the SATA drive to boot up. I had the jumpers set to CS on this drive. I looked in the bios start up menu to change the order of booting, but cannot change it.
How do I put this drive into the computer so it acts as a slave drive for additional storage?
