How can I set my computer to boot from the SATA drive vs the IDE drive.

 

The IDE drive (120GB) is currently C: and the SATA (160GB) is currently G:

 

I do have Norton Ghost, so I can make an exact copy from C: to G:

 

My motherboard is an ASUS A7V8X.

 

 

 

TIA

Set it up in your BIOS.

Download and read the manual:

Have similar equipped Gigabyte motherboard. Except, uses all Intel. Manual

provided instructions for me. You may have to do a repair installation

after the copy. I did not. I used an image restore rather than a copy.
