Update on HP Computer

I won't go into the trouble I had at PC World trying to buy an exterior case for my crashed hard drive and eventually had a refund from them. I thought as a last chance and as I was in the area, I'd call into Maplin Electronics to see if they had a case for a serial ATA hard drive. They supplied me with a 3.5 IDE/SATA HDD USB2.0 Combo Enclosure from www.newlinkproducts.co.uk for £39.99. I took it home, opened it up and proceeded to join up the leads. Nearly ALL of the info is readable and some of the games still run from this now external drive. I'm in the process of copying over all the essentials and have just managed to get back all my favourites. So hey, not bad for an old age female pensioner.

Glad you managed to recover

Glad you managed to recover most of your data.

IT stuff isn't as hard as most people make it out to be. Especially not as hard nor as expensive as PC World like to make it out to be.
