I tried that but the old drive just makes a beeping sound and doesn't show up at all on my computer. How do I know where to move the pin for slave when it isn't marked?

The easiest method involves opening your computer case and installing the drive with the pics on it as the second drive. You would have to set the drive jumper so that it is in the slave mode. That's the second drive in a chain. Most often this involves one jumper but not the same position as when it was in the old computer. Once the drive is installed you just start up the computer and the now slave drive will appear as additional drive letters. If you have one master drive and two optical drives the slave should come up as E. The you just use My Computer and look for the pictures. Let me know if you need any more information.
