If not, what do I need to do to fully use this drive reliably on my

Firstly, get an 80 wire IDE cable. Not hard, that has been the standard
for a long time.

Thanks very much. Sheesh; when I bought the HDD from a pretty good
local vendor I asked for an "IDE cable" for it; I figured he'd know
enough to give me the right thing.

Secondly, you might want to try including the line in the autoexe.bat in
the one used at boot...the exe it starts may be a manager for the
"larger than windows can handle" drive.

I'll give that a shot.

Thanks again.
