Posted September 14, 200717 yr My gf's PC fucked up and its old as shit and uses the Ieee (?) cables and my PC uses Sata. Would it fuck up anything if i hooked up hers and try to get her files off of it? While my sata is still hook up'd? Make sense? Edit: I mean would it hurt to have both HD's hooked up to the MB at the same time? As long as slave and master were settled. Could i boot off my HD and access hers to get the files off?

September 26, 200717 yr Agreed, IDE and SATA can be connected same time with no problems. no it cant, be carefull your shit might already be lost :lmfao:

September 28, 200717 yr They're lying. That's like plugging AC directly into a power supply. That's what ur supposed to do. Ur power supply is connected directly to the AC in ur wall.

September 29, 200717 yr with bios you dont have to fuck around with that, you just hook it up and set options.
