When you connected the slave drive, did you change the jumpers on the boot
drive to indicate that a slave was present? Some drives require this.

I very, very carefully,having never done this before, attached the hard
drive from the problem computer into my own as the slave. The BIOS
recognized it as a slave, but it wouldn't boot, it said :"disk error-press
any key to continue"? Does this mean the hd is dead? Or am I forgetting to
set something? My computer uses Win XP and the other one uses Me, make any
difference? I am terrified of hurting my own computer! Have I maybe not
connected the hd correctly, I followed instructions about the IDE cable and
power cord. I really, really would like to copy the info off this hard
drive onto a CD. Help.
