I have had enough of MAX for today. He did not like the WIN95 clone I installed on the new drive. The boot went ok for awhile. Win95 found all kinds of new hardware and did a Plug and Play install. I was starting to think the harddrive swap would work.

Win95 found some hardware that it did not have drivers for. It wanted to build a PCI bridge and some IDE stuff. It asked for a CD. I have a CD that came with the mobo but the CDROM drive and the floppy have not arrived yet.

I suppose I could put the new drive back in this machine and copy the CD to it. Then when it asks me for the CD I will point it to the harddrive.

In the end I will probably reformat the drive and do a clean install. My priority is to verify the components I have received are in working order.

A removable harddrive is just another way to mount a standard harddrive. dstor.com

The harddrive mounts in a tray. You mount a frame in a standard full size bay. Then you can slide the tray containing the harddrive in and out.

I am considering at least one removable bay in each of my computers.
