hi can anyone help me?
i'm trying to fix up a friends pc, she bought it new 3 mos ago from dell. it's running XP, we just installed SP3, and upon reboot the pc will not start up. i spent an hour on the phone with dell yesterday trying to fix it, and it came down to we have to reinstall windows. what i want to do is try to transfer files from that pc onto mine, then do a complete wipe of the pc and reinstall windows. what i am wondering is how do i go about transferring some of her files to my pc where her's won't even load up. Is it possible to do this? what kind of cable do i need to do this?
if anyone has any advice on this it would be fantastic.
thanks
