OK, let me try that...I'll make the HDD80GB a master on the other channel (how do you tell what channel something is, anyway? I assume it's by the fact that it's on a different cable?) and make my CD-ROM a slave on the first channel (where the 20GB HD is). I know the drive isn't dead because when I first checked to see how the dude had @#$% it up it booted up, using WinXP Professional.

Thanks for following this, and I'll let you know how I go (it's turned into something bigger than Ben Hur!!).
