ok...
Here is my problem. I have a new computer. It was built for me by one of my friends. My old hard drive is sitting on my shelf and it has about 300-400 pictures that I want in it. When I hook up the old hard drive to my new computer, I can only enter safe mode. It stops it's start-up half way through... So I tried going through step by step and Windows 98 loads, but I just get my desktop with a window that says: The disc might be scratched or dirty, please eject the disc, clean it or insert a new windows 98 start-up disc.
???
It won't let me do anything else....
In safe mode, I can copy the files but I only had a cd drive (no burner) and a floppy drive. It won't create any drivers in safe mode to burn my pictures... so I have to copy them to a floppy disc. And you know how long that would take....
Any suggestions? Comments? Constructive critisism?
Is there a way to connect both hard drives at the same time?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
John
