I'm posting this before I go ahead and try it so I'm not begging for emergency help later.
There seems to be a wealth of experts trolling here.
I have an Athalon 64 on an Asus K8V se mobo. Currently using a single WD Raptor SATA 10K rpm 74G that has some "issues" (corrupted directx in OS).
I bought a second Raptor at 36G and want to install that as the primary HD with the OS and a few select apps (games Teamspeak, little else).
As I understand it, SATA does not use the usual primary/slave setup.
What exactly are the steps I should go through to install the HD as the primary(?) and then install the OS (WinXP).
Thanks in advance
