Yeah, I know what you mean. Just this week I got my XP machine out for the first time in months and months. There's just no time anymore.
Getting my disc drives working was a bit of an adventure. I have a Dell E510 that survived the capacitor plague. But for some reason, the IDE controller is shot. Luckily it had two sata ports for the HDDs, but I ended up getting a pcie sata card and then two IDE to sata adapters for my disc drives. I'm totally surprised that it worked.
