Hi can anyone help me out i just bought a new SATA hardive, and i would like to use it as my main drive but i do not know what to do, I want to install windows XP
 
First, are you trying to add the SATA drive or are you replacing the old drive? Do you know if your system is compatible with SATA drives?

Whether you are adding or replacing the drive, the SATA drive should have come with a CD with a software to either add the SATA drive as an additional drive or replace the old drive. Just follow the instructions. If it didn't come with instructions, post back.

============================
Hope this helps.
