The girlfriend bought a new Compaq Presario with an SATA hard drive and Vista Home Edition. The old machine was an XP machine with an IDE drive controller.
I looked at the new motherboard specs and can't find any mention of an IDE controller.
Does anybody know of an easy way to connect the old IDE hard drive to the new machine so I can migrate files over from old to new.
Barring that, does anybody know what type cable is used if I have to do the Windows Easy Transfer (WET) procedure.
thanks
