Hi,
Plug your USB drive into a USB port. Windows should give you a notice saying that there is new hardware. Once that pops up, you should be able to go into 'My Computer' on your desktop. It should show up as a "removable disk". Double click on this and it will reveal the contents on your USB drive. Then you can drag and drop these files on to your desktop or where ever you want to save them.
Regards,
Brandon

Plug the flash drive into a USB port on your laptop. If running Windows XP, then it will probably popo up a box after a few seconds asking you what to do (view pictures, open in media player, view folder contents, etc).
If not, then open up My Computer and look for the new drive under removeable drives. Double-click on that.
In either case, you can simple highlight and copy/paste the data on your flash drive to you laptop.

If you have a Mac, once you plug the flash drive into your USB port, it will show up on your desktop. You simply double-click to open and drag the files to your computer where you want them.
If you have Windows computer, you will first have to obtain a Master's Degree in computer science to do the same thing.

plug your flash drive into your laptop. When your notebook gives the ok sign (typical a bee-boop!) you can go to my computer, then click on removable devices, and it should display your flash drives contents!
