Check these instructions. All drives can be Master, Slave or CableSelect depending on the jumper setting. Cable Select (CS) is always a safe bet.

PATA HDD's (the ones that take the ribbon cable) have had the jumper settings printed on the label for the past 10 years. Different makes have different settings so we would need to know the make and size of HDD.

You could also use trial and eror without damaging the HDD.

SATA do not have jumpers as they are "cable select" and master is normally the one in the first SATA connection on the MoBo

Can you tell if you are having a boy or girl using a home pregnancy kit? I heard something about it but it doesnt sound right.

No, you cannot tell the gender of a baby using a home pregnancy test. They test for the presence of the HCG hormone and can give a yes or no answer as to whether the woman is pregnant. There are some new gender kits on the market that claim to tell the gender of the baby about 10 weeks after conception but that's not the same as a pregnancy test.

I have a 1997 528I and I'm having problems starting her. I tried jumping her but I think I should have put the negative cable on the bolt provided is this true?

It shouldn't matter whether the negative cable is attached to a ground point or to the battery terminal, as long as the car's black cable is on the terminal. What is the car doing when you jump it? Can you tell me how you came to need a jump?

Jumper placement

Look at the chart printed on the drive itself. If there is no chart, post what drive model it is and whether you want master or slave position. You do have an IDE drive, don't you?

I installed an additional hard drive in my laptop. The computer will no longer boot up. I've read the the BIOS needs to be changed by I don't know how.

Please tell me which Motherboard your system has???
If you have added an additional drive, check whether you have set the jumpers right for master/slave/cable select configuration.

If you bios setup to boot up from first HDD, then the bootable HDD shall be in master mode. Configure bootable HDD as master & additional one as slave.

If still no luck, Put this additional HDD on other IDE slot.
Tell me if this works...
