Thank you guys I appreciate the help! Working on getting all updates and drivers on the new hard drive right now. I just now got to a point I can get on the net and login here to see everything you guys have helped with so I get it fresh in my memory again lol Will be working on that once all the updates are done.

I went and checked out your forum quick. I see a place to post PC builds. You will probably gain a member soon once i get this computer back in shape. I don't know any other forums to go for that. I have a list of parts I think will work but maybe not work well or the way I think they will. Compatibility is not so hard anymore but just because they plug in and turn on does not mean it is a quality system or there is not bottle necking happening or work the way I think it will. Other people with experience seem to know that much better then I. As last time My parts picked would have worked but not the best for what I planned to do.
Well bad news maybe. My old drive is not showing up when i plug it back in. Is there anything I can do about it? Or am I just doing something wrong? I shut the computer down and just plugged it back into the same SATA cable it use to be plugged into. Never unplugged power cable.
Check the cables (on the drive and on the MB)
Does the disk show up under BIOS?
"...I see a place to post PC builds..." Along with F22Simpilot's very good forum[!], you can also go to bleepingcomputer.com -- they too have a build forum.
Well That was one of the forums I have not been getting responses from anymore. Altho not in the PC build section recently. They did help me build this very computer. They had helped me a ton in the past. One of my favorite go to forums. Very good at removing bad things from a computer. In fact many years ago I loaned a computer to a person I shouldn't of and apparently he watched a lot of adult content and filled the computer ridiculously full of viruses and malware. They helped me work on that thing for weeks! But the last couple of posts never got a response. Henc why I joined here in the first place.
Newegg Also helped build this PC. But i cannot find that forum anymore. Not sure what happen there.
