Dell Inspiron 1300 Hdd Problem

Just replaced motherboard in my Dell Inspiron 1300 Laptop with a board from a donor unit, and my original HDD seems like it doesn't want to seat in the connector. The connector on the donor MB looks like the trashed MB, but I don't have a donor HDD to compare with the original HDD
