    Hi,

    My o/s is running Windows XP Home. I purchased an additional hard drive through a computer fair. It's a 45G IBM Deskstar. We have an HP Pavilion a610e PC.

    Can anyone offer advice on how to install, or whether or not there might be compatibility issues?

    Thanks.

    compatiablitly should be fine. you should probably format it once you have it hooked up. make sure there is a power source for it in your machine and there is another IDE jack on the cable to hook it up to.
