Hey Guys,
Recently came across a system that I'm trying to 'upgrade' for a friend, and I'm trying to salvage the aforementioned harddrive with his files on it.
Now, I've tried every possible combination of jumper settings, on multiple systems throughout my house, on Windows 2000, 98, and XP, and for the life of me I can't get it to work in Windows.
It recognizes the hard drive in BIOS and on Boot, but it won't let me access it from DOS or Windows. I can find it in Windows under the device manager, but it does not have a drive designation. I even tried multiple IDE cables and still no change. I've invested so much time I'm about to break him the news that his files along with his HD are in my trash.
