okay, this is my first post on techspot! I apologize in advance for what might be a very newbie question.
I need to access an older IDE drive in my computer. I have successfully accessed the drive. The OS for this particular drive (Samsung drive) is Windows XP
This is the first time I have accessed this drive on our "Hackintosh" as we mainly use the Mac drive, but my M-Audio only works on this particular drive, as the other drive we have uses Windows 7 OS which is not compatible with the M-Audio and Pro Tools. *Note in total we have 4 hard drives: 1 for Mac, 2 for Win 7, and 1 for Win XP
So, here is where I am confused....when I boot up the old IDE drive, and access Win XP, the Found New Hardware wizard begins detecting a ton of new hardware:
1) ethernet controller
2) PCI device
3) SM Bus Controller
4) Base System Device
I tried following the Wizard's instructions, but it is unable to find software on my system or via searching online.
The only discs I have for our computer are, the graphics card and motherboard. I am not even sure if it is detecting my LG DVD drive.
How do I methodically locate and install the hardware for all of the above hardware?
How do I check to see what hardware has been successfully installed?
Thanks!
