>>88 Was it a laptop or a desktop? Are you sure it was the hard drive that died and maybe not the motherboard/processor? You could possibly try taking the hard drive out of the old PC and installing it into your new pc as a slave driver. Hopefully SATA and not IDE... else you'd might have to purchase a combination cord depending on how "new" this new computer is for that to work. Worth a shot. I concur with gamergirl.
