maxdamage75 Regular Location: Melbourne Registered: May 2002	Re: SMART COMPUTER PEOPLE HELP! Tue, 10 February 2004 06:09 Unplug the power cables from both the computers (safer that way). Take the hard drive out of the old computer and either put it in your new computer or leave it sitting on the table outside the case. if you follow the grey cable from your new hard drive to the motherboard there should be another connection to plug another grey cable in so grab the cable from your old computer and plug it into the connection on the motherboard and connect the other end into the hard drive. You will also have to plug in the power cable so find one like your new hard drive has. If there is already another grey cable running to a cd rom then just unplug that and the power cable and plug them into the old hard drive. After that turn it on and go into the bios and detect the other hard drive and exit. Boot up the computer normally and windows should detect the old hard drive and just go into explorer or whatever and copy the stuff across. I would use either Windows 2000 or XP. All the rest are too old and too shit. If you don't know what you're doing though it might be best to find someone who does. Alternatively, you could set up a network with a crossover cable and do it that way. edit: just read the stuff coronamark2 wrote which is basically the same as what i said, only a bit more detailed.
