Eric, You will need to have both drives in the machine. Simply install the new drive, set the jumper to Master, and set your old drive's jumper to Slave.
Then boot off the new drive, mount your old drive and copy the files that you want from it onto the new drive. Easy. :) Kindest Regards, Ashley (aka ze0). |----------------------------------------------------------| | Ashley Reynolds (aka ze0) [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | http://www.botepidemic.com Ph: +61 404 140 163 | |----------------------------------------------------------| > Hi > Civilme answered a question yesterday I think it was.
