5...install new HD in its place be sure to use the screws
6.....hook up the IDE/SATA cable
7...hook up the power
8..put system back together..........plug it in
9...insert XP CD and restart........watch for "push any key to start from
CD"
10....install XP and all of your programs.

If you wish you could hook up the old drive as a slave to the new
drive...watch the jumpers on the back...and copy your personal files over.
good luck

1. Unplug your Power from the wall
2. Open your case
3. Find your Hard drive and unscrew the screws or unhook screwliess device
4. Unplug the power connector and the ide or sata ribbon
