Computer wise I'm always behind in technology by my job has made it necessary to step up a bit. I am now in the process of switching to a much better computer and have come across a small snag.
Instead of transferring all of my data, songs, pictures etc.. to the new computer's hard drive, I figured I would just install the old hardrive as a slave in the new computer. There in lies the problem, the old hard dive has no identification on it what-so-ever. I need to know how to find out which jumper to use to switch it to a slave.
The only info I have is it's a Compaq Presario 5242 and a 10G drive. Will it work if just swap the jumper around until one works?
Thanks in advance for any help!
