I am trying to move my 30 gig HD from my Emachine to my new puter and having some difficulties. I am running XP pro and was told that this was a simple process. Should I run the main IDE cable from the HD directly to the motherboard only, and then run the secondary IDE cable from the cd-rw to the dvd-rw then to the motherboard? Also obviously the hd should be set at master, but how do i set the jumpers for the cdrw and the dvdrw? cdrw as master and dvdrw as slave as that is the order they are from the top of the tower? Thanks for any help I can get.
