Basically you are installing a second hard drive, right? That can be a major pain in the butt! It requires master/slave configuration and correct insertion of IDE ribbons to get BIOS to reconize the hard drive. CD should have nothing to do with getting that hard drive to work.
 
if my memory serves me correctly, your second hard drive should be set on slave. There should be a jumper with an instruction on your hard drive.

For IDE ribbon, just fiddle around with it until it works. I am not sure if I am missing anything right here, somebody correct me if I'm wrong or missing anything.
 
No. im having a trouble to install a driver for web cam. It seems impossible to make it work
 
oh, a driver for web cam! But what are you trying to show in your picture? Did you download a driver from web?
 
So you just tossed in picture not knowing what you are doing? hehe, well your 3com webcam... can you post exact name and model of it and maybe I can find a link to the driver?

That's not true. the hard drive should come with Cd. CD must install itself to recongione(mispell) between the computer and hard drive. Since enterlity is trying to install a second hard drive. So the setting should be slave and u dont need to use IDE cable but pluggin in between computer and first hard drive
 
Someone was saying it doesnt work for Winxp but win98, win98se, and winme

Im not certain if its a fact.

Some computers/hard drives does not require CD and read what Eternity has been saying recently. Please stop talking about hard drive and start focusing on web cam...

Name and Model...
