where did the xp drive come from? Was it from another computer?

This drive did not have an OS on it though. Just files. Music, pictures, movies, etc. Definitely no operating system though. Does that change things?first of all, you cannot move an operating system from one computer to another, different drivers because of different motherboards and such.
also, if the os came with that old computer, it cannot be transfered to another computer per microsofts eula.
You will need to purchase a full retail version of xp and then install it in the old drive to be legal.
They are SATA drives. I don't see any jumper settings?sorry, I misread your original post. I guess I need to concentrate more here than on the stargate movie I am watching.
Anyway, check the jumpers on the drives. The vista drive should be master and the xp drive should be slave.
