Second hard drive

When I loaded Vista I changed the primary hd (raid) at the same time. I have
a second hd (ide) and unhooked it so windows would install the new drive as
C: Everything is up and running and now when I plug in the second hd Vista
won't boot. Anyone have any ideas?

Plug in the second drive, go into BIOS setup and make sure the correct hard
drive is listed as the boot drive.

Set the jumper to slave position, if the new drive is set to master..
