Hrmmm, that all sounds fine and dandy I guess. One small problem though, and I'm going to try to be honest as honest as I can here. My computer was bought with Windows 8 on it. I installed Windows 7 not long after (Pretty straightforward so far). Now, I'm not sure if I have my old Windows 8...

Hi guys, Thanks to you guys for all the help you've given me already, it's very appreciated. Be assured, all the knowledge I get here, I do my best to spread it around everywhere I go and help others the way I've been helped. This is just have a very generic question about Windows 10...

Listen, I'm sorry man, it was a bad choice of words. When I said real help I meant like paying someone to help me, as in finding a professional. This is like a last resort, I want to be able to figure this out myself but I don't know what else to do. I appreciate you telling me about getting...

Jeez, I don't know what to do. Looks like I won't be able to do this without any real help. Does nobody know about the jumper diagram, there are two jumpers in all of them, why do I only have one?

Can you guys see that alright? In the pictures, it looks like there are two jumpers. I only have one, am I missing one? The brand is Hitachi. Model says HDS724040KLAT80 It's an 80 wire cable for sure, I've got a 40 as well for the optical drive that I can't get to work either. Maybe the...

Well, it's looking like this could possibly be something to do with the jumper block. The problem is, the diagram on my hard drive usually has two of the things yet on the actual hard drive I only have one. Am I supposed to have another one or is there some way I can configure it with just the one?

I just read this so I have a basic understanding of how to use these hard drives Install Hard Drive - A guide to installing a IDE hard drive

Hey guys, So, I've got this old tower that I built for fun and for practice, but also to serve as a music library to be configured with my sound system. This is what I've done: Got an old P4 with 2Gbs of RAM, I believe, bought off some guy in town and a 40Gb hard drive. I've got XP installed...

Thanks Chief

Ok, we're good. It was just the driver.... Phew

We're messing with the drivers now, I hope this is the problem

Hey guys, I'm sort of a noob anyway, I'm trying to help my friend with some stuff on his computer. He has his laptop at my house but he can't connect to my internet (my Wifi is disabled) The computer is plugged in, through a wire (cat 5) that I know works yet he's got no connection to the...

I'm still having some other problems actually. This time activating the wireless..

There's nothing wrong with Windows 8, for most casual users. My problem with Windows 8 is in regards to gaming. Windows 8 is not able to run many many games and has problems with games it does run. So, from my experience, I'm a gamer, I've had problems with Windows 8. If you're not a gamer...

Alright so we've figured this part out. It was some settings in the BIOS after all.
