I have a Gateway desktop that's no good.
(It's going to cost more to repair than to buy a new computer)
What I want to do it transfer data from the internal hard drive to some other storage device before I get rid of the whole computer.(I haven't decided which storage to transfer to ie: laptop hard drive, CD/RW or flash drive).
The operating system will not boot properly, so I guess "transfer software" is out of the question.
Is there a way I can transfer or copy specific files and/or folders from the hard drive without booting the system?
Maybe taking the hard drive out of the case and hooking it up to something to transfer to??
Thanks for any info...
