    The motherboard on my T42 has stopped working, but my hard drive is still in working order. I am unable to turn on my T42. How do I get my saved files off of the T42 hard drive and on to my new computer?

    How do I remove my harddrive? Is it easy? I don't know much about computer hardware.

    There's one screw on the bottom to remove, then yank it out.
