Search google for a tool called "reset dma" and run it. If you are still having problems getting them recognized try a different IDE cable. It's always a good idea to check for spyware and viruses when weird stuff starts happening.

personally i use an air compressor, its a 150 PSI twin cyclinder beast, i put the computer on like a chair outside and keep blowing air until NO more dust comes out There's a reason I use 40 PSI. One, you can knock stuff off of the motherboard/other parts with too much air pressure. Two, if you cle...

If you eMachines is older than 2 years I'd be 99% sure it is an IDE drive.

1. Remove the old hard drive, likely held in with 4 small screws. Just unplug the connections from the back of the drive. If there are more screws search for them.

Couple of things... 1. You do know that Gigabit networks work a CPU pretty hard. If you have a slow CPU on one end you will likely not fully utilize your conneciton. 2.
