dell 8250. windows won't let me. it's a legal version
of xp pro and the problem is thoroughly annoying. i am
grateful in advance for any and all help
 
Greetings --

What do you mean by "Windows won't let me?" What error messages
do you get? Is the hard drive properly jumpered and cabled? Is it
recognized in the PC's BIOS?
