"Which one's pink?"
Posts: 12,152
I'm fairly sure how to do this, though I'll beg for help anyway.

My dad bought a CD/DVD-ROM recently, and he wants it installed.
The instructions are, quite frankly, crap.
Considering the only language is Swahili or something. Not a word of English.

So, just to cover everything so that it looks like I sort of know what I'm talking about...

You've got your E-IDE cable, right? That goes into the motherboard... somewhere.
The PSU thing is fine for me, so that's ok.
Then there's this other little cable which goes into the hard drive or something, right?
And there's the whole Master/Slave malarky.
Which I've no idea about.

So if you could just clarify everything please, people.
Cheers.
