It would be awesome if you were a bit more specific on what type
of Drive it is. Otherwise I can't help you.

When you fail to supply sufficient information as to what your problem is and what you are trying to do, you make it hard for people to respond.
If you are trying to install XP on your new drive a SATA driver on floppy disk will be required, download it from Dell.
