Thank you alvin!

I don't see a hole in the ide cable (where should it be?);( What hole do you 
mean?  Like the hole in the floppy cable with the twisted wires?) and i am 
using Western Digital Drives and the computer has Award Bios (asus a7n8x-x 
motherboard - amd-xp processor).

i tried setting both hard drives on the cable to cable select and then the 
machine won't boot.

Thanks
