I am trying to transfer the contents of my HDD from an old win 98
machine to my new XP machine.
I have taken the disk out of the 98 machine, changed the jumpers to
slave and then installed it into the XP machine, hoping to be able to
see the old drive from the XP machine.
On the XP machine - the drive is not visible at all within explorer,
and
in the disk management util within XP the new dirve appears as
Unallocated.
I then removed the disk and put it back into the windows 98 machine,
but it will now not work in there either. Could the XP machine have
changed the windows 98 disk in some way to render the data
irrecoverable on either machine?
Please help me recover my files - I
machine to my new XP machine.
