You'll need an IDE-to-USB adapter. They sell hard drive enclosures for around $40 that you can put the hard drive into, plug into a USB port on your laptop, and it'll be detected as an external hard drive.

I'd suggest an IDE-USB cable. Really cheap and highly recommended. I use mine constantly for backing up peoples data. Also you could slave the drive to your machine as a secondary drive. Pull your data and then unconnect it. Or keep it connected, format it after you get your data and have a spare drive.

per chance it ought to ward off them to a disk, and then load it on the different computer? once you've a PSP then you could placed it on there and then plug a USB Cable into your new computer? in case you do not have a PSP or you in effortless words can not borrow one, then attempt to deliver it threw an e-mail out of your previous one too your new. wish THIS helps!
