Hi guys!

Got another problem! I was given a computer that
originally had Win95 on it. I was going to give it
away after upgrading the OS to Win98. At first I could
not get the floppy drive to work, so I took the hard
drive out and connected it in place of my hard drive.
From that point it was not being recognized, and it
didn't matter which computer I tried it in. In my
computer my harddrive works fine. So I took it to my
stepfather, the unofficial expert in PC repairs. He
too was unable to get either his or the original PC to
recognize it. So, I bought another HD from someone on
ebay, It too doesnot  work in any of the 3 PCs. I
installed the ebay HD in my PC first, and it did
exactly the same as the first one. Thinking I had done
something wrong, I took it to my stepfather, he had
same issue. Neither of us have tried to install our
WinXP HDs in the original PC. (I'm a little skerred
to!) What are the chances of both HDs going bad
suddenly?!  HELP Please!

Thanks, Amy Ledford
