Answered by Jmnt499
- A: AnswerI have had several computers that stopped booting up. At times, I just wanted to upgrade an old computer but keep the files from the hard drive. In either case, it is a fairly simple procedure to retrieve your files. First, you will need to know how to remove the hard drive from the existing computer. You will need to purchase a HDD docking station. ( Note: you will need to verify what type of hard drive connection you are retrieving the files from, i.e SATA or IDE) You must purchase the correct docking station or the pin connectors will not fit. You will also need a computer to download your files to. Once the old hard drive is in the docking station, the docking station will power and connect to your new computer via USB port. There should be directions with the docking station to help you. Your old hard drive is now acting like an external drive and if everything is configured correctly, it will open on the receiving computer as a drive, i.e. f drive, g drive, Note: you will only be able to open certain files but not the programs running them. You can then move the old files to the new computer. ** I am giving one solution that has worked for me. I realize that there may be other solutions and more specific info so maybe someone else can fill in anything I may have missed. Hope this helps!
