Primary IDE connects to PC hdd and 1 DVD drive (optional)

Secondary IDE ONLY connects to xbox hdd. NO DVD drive. Make sure xbox hdd jumper set to master or Cable Select.

Look on PC motherboard. The IDE cable connects to pc hdd and connects to motherboard. That IDE port is Primary IDE.

The other IDE port is Secondary. It is just next to the Primary IDE

tybro: so you bought a new larger drive for your PC and it is no longer booting up?


Did you go through the settings TheReturn spoke of before to make sure your drive is set to say Cable Select and not master or slave?

well the guy at the rapair shop said to connect it via secondary IDE, but thats the IDE im using to connect my xbox HDD to to use xplorer360, and i noticed there were two male connectors on each IDE so i tried the second male on the primary IDE (the one farthest from the motherboard) but the computer wouldnt even boot,. so now what?

dude this sounds like the exact same problem you had before and the solution will most likely be the exact same thing you had to do before.

what is the jumpers set at on your hard drive new hard drive?

Change the jumpers on the new hard drive to CABLE SELECT and make sure your MAIN hard drive is set to MASTER.
