Just gotta change the jumpers to slave. Look at the top of your hard
drive for a chart and you won't lose data doing that.

Loose: the opposite of tight
Lose: the opposite of win

As mentioned you need to jumper it.

No Data loss, since it has an active partition it will try to be D:\
drive when you boot up (no matter how many partitions you have on C:\
) - if on another XP you might need to use the disk manager to change
it's drive partition.
