Thanks for the reply. I think gave some bad info at first. Turns out it was my new card reader that was the E:

In disk management, the new HDD is labeled as: Disc0, basic, C:, 700GB, NTFS, online, healthy(system).

The old drive is actually: Disc1, basic, 80GB, online, unallocated. I can't see the old drive in Explorer. Does it have to be mounted or mapped or partitioned or what? It has a partition with XP on it already.

I have the BIOS sata operation config set to IDE instead of RAID or AHCI - does that matter?

Thanks for not mocking me too badly.
