I have a Hard Drive that wont boot up, Im assuming its gone bad and I dont
want to loose the files I've got on there. Is there a way I can transfer the
files from that Hard Drive to another Hard Drive? Any input would be helpful.
Thankyou.

Tony, you could try connecting the hard drive as slave to your working
drive. If it's still workable you can access it
from My Computer. From there you can transfer any important data.
