yeah pretty much. but it is a VERY important hd with accounting info and stuff from my familys business. my mom hasnt ever backed it up, and i am building her a new comp. now, i could just use her old hdd, but it is only 80gb, and i really think that her windows installation is corrupt in several areas.
so there are several files i need to copy from the old hdd to the new one. it may bea s simple as setting them both up in the new machine with the new hdd as a master and the old as a slave (its IDE), and basically just umm, copy them. like copying a file to a different folder, ya know?
i just dont want to screw it up, cos it has lots and lots of irreplaceable information on it. then i would be dead.
