Default Help installing .NET framework

I have watched hard drives being assembled from outside a clean room. I was
too dirty to access the clean room.

OK, first, make sure the first harddrive at the end of the IDE cable to
Master. Then set to second disk in the middle to Slave. Cable Select
only works in certain cases where the pin configuration and proper
cables are used.

Now, see if your BIOS recognizes both harddrives. When the computer
first boots up, you should see a POST (Power On Self Test) screen that
shows information. Are both of your drives listed there? If they aren't,
try entering the BIOS (by pressing whatever it tells you to which is
usually the DEL key or F1). You may also need to press the esc key to
bypass any OEM logos such as Dell or HP to see the POST screen. Once in
the BIOS, see if you can use an autodetect or set your IDE controllers
to auto. See if you can do anything to find the new harddrive, but be
careful not to change anything you don't know what it does.

Hopefully you can find it somewhere in there if it doesn't already
detect both drives. If the POST shows both drives, it is a software
issue that both aren't shown in Windows.

Use the good drive as the Master and make sure Windows XP is installed
on it. Set the second drive as Slave and boot up. You should be able to
just copy and paste the files over. If the drive doesn't appear, there
may be several causes for this. Chipset drivers, importing foreing
drives, or assigning a drive letter are all options you have if it isn't
recognized.

Grrr...

I tried to install my dying HDD as a slave, but it wouldn't let me. I
tried various combos of enable/disable autospin and cable select vs
device 1. I even went to www.hgst.com to verify my jumpering of my
Deskstar IC35L090AVV207-0 ATA/IDE...

Nope, nada, nothing, nyet...

For what it's worth, I was trying to install into an old Dell Optiplex
GX1 whose other disk is a 30GB EIDE disk (I forget the
manufacturer/model) jumpered to device 0 (not CS).

I'm about to give up, yet I don't want to...

TIA,

Steve

Thanks Peter.

I will attempt to recover data from the dying HDD as you wrote, but it
is difficult since for the past 24+ hours that disk is more dead than
alive. That is, I can't get the computer to recognize it when it is
going "click-click-click".

:-(

But, I will keep on trying until it works. I need to recover my PST
file first and foremost! What do you all think of my taking apart the
HDD and tinkering with it? Any words of wisdom?

Opening your hard drive will take you from bad to disaster. Suggest
that
you not even try.

Frequently applications, such as your Dell software,that require .NET
Framework will include .NET Framework in a folder on the installation
CD.

Thanks. Yes, I have already ordered a new HD and am making sure that I
have backups from now on. My problem is that I have data on there that
I really would like to recover. Not a lot, but still important data.

I am contemplating taking the drive apart and seeing if I can fix that
clicking problem.

Get a new hard drive! The clicking noises sound a bit on the dubious side.
You could just try to copy as much to an external source as you possibly can
and then replace the drive, but there isn't masses that you can do with a
drive that is "physically" damaged, which is what is suggested with a drive
that is making strange sounds.
