Have just bought a new emachine w/ an XP OS and wish to install an old 20Gb hard disk from a Win 98 machine.
runga.
 
Install as slave and then go to computer management.
If the drive shows up in computer management then go the bottom section, over on the bottom right, go to the drive and right-click on it and partition and format.
