Hello members,

I need advice installing a second hard drive as a slave. I have a Dell XPS
400 running with XP. I purchased a new Seagate 160GB Serial ATA w/NCQ
7200/8MB from an internet company and a hookup cable from a different  internet
source listed as SATA Serial ATA Cable – 36inch – Red – 1 Right Angle
Connector. I installed the drive and connected the cable to the drive and
the motherboard also connected the extra power plug to the drive. The
computer doesn't recognize the drive by clicking on "My Computer" also the
Add Hardware Wizard cannot find it. The drive did not come with an
installation CD or installation instructions.  Where do I go from here?
