Using two hard drives in the same PC with windows 7 Home premium

[siwomyel1]

I replace one of the two drives and now the PC only boots from the new drive. It doesn't give me the choice to chose witch drive I want to boot from anymore. I went to BIOS, I only see the new drive as SATA, the other one is mentioned as IDE. ( both of them are SATA drives)Why and what should I do to fix the problem?

Did you set up dual boot ?

All the best Brett

Had the same problem with my friends PC, play around with which connections you have connected the drive to. also make sure the power hasn't fallen out the back of the drive, i did this and was trying to find out what happened or ages lol.
