I have recently added a 120 gb hd to my comp. I used
Western Digital Data lifeguard to set it up as a new boot
drive. It is partitioned into 2 parts one 40 and the other
80 gb. I am having trouble re formatting the C: drive
because it is the main boot drive. I ahve changed the Bios
to open HDD-01. But am not sure if it opening the new hd
or the old 40 gb one. Please help me!

>Make sure you changed the jumper setting on the new

drive to master, and the old drive to slave. When to
computer boots us it will see the new drive. If both of
them are connected to the same IDE cable. The master is
connected to the closest pin to the motherboard
