I agree with you, as to why the ME drive cant read the XP drive when the XP drive is the slave, but why isn't the XP drive seen when it is the only (master) drive?

When I plug the XP drive in solo, with the jumper set to master, or cable select, it does'nt POST. Just get "drive not ready" error.

Now since the box itself has an old ('99) disk controller, do I need to do something in WinXP to include this controler?

When I boot from the ME drive and look up the hard disk controller in device manager, it shows: AMD 756 OCU Bus Master Dual IDE Controller. Is it possible that this controller was not included with XP?
