Hold on a minute..maybe I haven't made myself clear.

Right, I was starting to run out of space on the original hard drive I got with the computer (80 GB). I have since bought a new hard drive (320 GB) and have installed it on to my computer. Obviously, at the moment my original hard drive (80 GB) is the 'master' drive and my new one is the 'slave' drive. Now, what I want to do is change my original hard drive (80 GB) (which is the 'master drive at the moment) to the 'slave' drive.

So basically I want my new hard drive as the 'master' drive and my old..original 80 GB hard drive as my slave drive. I don't know how to do this..hence why I'm on here asking questions.

Can I not just un-install windows from my original hard drive..change my new hard drive to the 'master' drive and install windows and start all over again?

Thanks in advance, Parky.
