my laptop recently well stoped working. (when i click the power button it doesnt come on.) is there a way of getting the data of that computer and on to an external hard drive without taking the hard drive out of the laptop?
I don't want to be the one to say this, but are you plugged into a wall socket?
Try removing the battery and doing so.
Also, the power button may actually be the thing thats broken, and not the laptop itself.
