I am running w2k pro and i want to add another hard drive with wxp/p. I have put xp on a different hard drive but i probably havent configured them correct. It doesnt register both hd's or give me the option to boot from both. After reading other posts regarding this sort of thing i think i should have made sure what was set as the master/slave and also what part of the ide cable was connected when i installed xp. does the ide connection matter? i have xp on one h/d and 2k on the other but at present i have opened up pc to swap. do i need to start again with both h/d's installing any particular one first, which ide and master/slave settings should they be on. once this is up and running is it possible to transfer files (i dont think so). sorry but i probably should be leaving this sort of thing to someone who knows better, but i need to learn
