Recovering files from laptop with XP that won't boot
Need to recover data from laptop before sending it in for repair
My Samsung laptop running Windows Vista has died. How do I recover the data that was on it? It will not turn on – is there any way I can get the data off the hard drive?
Maybe by using some sort of adapter?
I'm now running Mac with OS X Lion if that makes it any difference for recovering, although I also have a Windows laptop I can get my hands on too.
