Are you saying that you put another hard drive in your computer and tried to boot the operating system that was already on it? If you want to use that as your main boot drive, you will have to reinstall windows.

Ok I want to boot with the drive I have in the machine right now which has Windows Vista Home on it 64/32 version . It is a 640 GB hard drive. I am adding a 200GB hard drive from my old computer that was running XP MCE. I do NOT want to use the operating system on that drive but there are hundreds of pictures on that drive I want to relocate on my other drive and then format the 200 GB drive. How can I do this? I thought I had the master/slave/cable select pin in the right place but the computer keeps wanting to boot from the 200 GB hard drive instead of the 640GB. Also the 640GB is a sata drive and the 200 GB is a IDE drive. Thanks for bearing with me.

Also the 640GB is a sata drive and the 200 GB is a IDE drive.

you'll need to check the CMOS for settings related to boot order and IDE/SATA.

Thank you it was my cmos setup I tried it and it worked out now I have the drive working but it has a partition in it because it was the boot drive in old computer and now I just want the plain whole 200 GB drive NO partitions.

Currently it looks like this:

6.01 GB Healthy EISA configuration
E: 13.97 GB Primary Partition
F: 166.33 GB Primary Partition
The 6GB is from the hard drive being set up with the master info on it if the computer crashed
for a restore option but I obviously do not need that any more I just want a formated 200GB hard drive to use. Thank you in advance.

Now that it is booting Please restate your goals for how you want it setup including what size drives...where the data is and how much etc.....
I have to admit i got confused here...but it isn't the first time.

boot from the windows CD- you can delete partitions before installation.
