OK,
One more time.
First computer is a Dell Laptop running WindowsXP/Ubuntu
The second computer is a Windows XP desktop.
This is a straight Windows-Windows transfer.
Forget Ubuntu, that is not what I am talking about, it is the simple fact that Windows does not do what it says it does.
Could someone please tell me how it is that you plug an IDE 3.5" HDD into a laptop when the pin configuration does not match, let alone the lack of a power connector.
