            here's a surprise I dont have enough time to get it all said, in the long run I removed the cd reader since its not needed and was there for some cause and the drive spun up.  Thing is that the BIOS didnt see any thing of like 4 gb range.  Got the old ones fire it up and got dos on it the other hd is dead may try my one maxtor and see but its clicking.

            Why you insist on resuscitating dead/dying hardware is beyond me....
            And don't give me that line about how it's teaching you things because the same issues keep happening over and over....
            This would indicate the learning process isn't progressing at all but at a standstill.

              What I just said that it works.   ::)  The thing is that I had a 2 gb drive that I wanted to use which had worked in place of the orginal drive.  I have a quantum that I was going to use but it was 4 gb and the bios wouldnt support it.  I ended up useing one of the orginals after testing them saing that there failing but appearntly that isnt so true since Dos is on one of them.
