Was the install on the IDE for an old mobo, or the same mobo??

The old board is an Albatron KM400a Pro.

So the IDE probably isn't liking the new mobo? It's effectively a slave drive at the moment. I can access all the files.

You got it, it should still work, just dont boot from the IDE.

Because its another mobo (this ASUS), and the info on the IDE doesnt match the hardware on the ASUS.

Boot from the SATA, to access it.

If you want to run whatever programs from the IDE, you'll have to reinstall them on the SATA. So, they work properly.

Cheers for that. I've made an image of the IDE C drive. I'm possibly going to put linux on the IDE.
