As long as you have an open bay of the right size, just the hard drive is all you should need, maybe two screws. If you don't have an open bay, you can use an external hard drive that just plugs into a USB port.

Can any one help you i want to install a 80 G hard drive with windows xp into your IBM computer but you cant get it to boot up can anybody tell how to sovle thisit wont boot up not sure what you have?

Make sure hard drive is connected and configured correctly in the bios as the Master drive. If the hard drive came from another computer, which i expect it probably did you will have to find a Windows XP disc, Serial Number and Install a clean version of XP on it. When you take a drive from another machine it won't work because the drivers that have been installed from the previous hardware are still present and there is no drivers for the new hardware as you didn't install the OS on the drive connected to that hardware.
