hard drive help??

[trailrider894]

i just got a old Dell Dimension 4700. i took the hard drive out of my dimension 3000 to put in the 4700. well i opened the case up and found that the it only had one ide port and 3 sata ports and the only ide port was being used with the cd rom. i took the 40 wire cable out and replaced it with the 80 wire cable and tried hooking my cd-rom and the hard drive up on the same 80 wire cable. the computer came up with that it didn't have any hard drives connected. and the cd-rom wouldn't work either. but i have to have the cd-rom work and the hard drive so i can install a fresh copy of windows on it. HELP!!!

You need to set the jumper pins up on the back of each drive.
Master for one drive and Slave for the other drive. There is usually a diagram on the drives with the pin configuration. Or you can use CS cable select on both drives.
