Well today I decided to get my old IDE Harddrive of my old computer since this 80GB SATA Harddrive I had was always around being full, well I tried to put it in today, but everything I try it sets as the Master drive over my Sata Harddrive, Any where I put the jumpers or anything, always the same I've had a look in the BIOS but can't figure it out. I've tried multiple combination's with jumper's and nothing, does anyone know a way that I can make my Sata Harddrive the master over my IDE harddrive. I'll get more INFO on hard drives / Mobo and all that here soon.

Go into the Bios and look for Hard disk PRIORITY. Make the Sata the 1st , move it to the top. Back out and save.
