Yeah, it makes sense that in her case
she wouldn't want to remember all the other men that gave their lives whilst not being massive cowards.

Have you smashed it with a hammer yet?
It's very important that you smash it with a hammer
(Bazongaloid, Mon 12 Nov 2012, 14:45, Reply)

I put it safely away in my magnet draw

If you ask a computer specialist
they may tell you not to smash it with a hammer. They are lying. Smash it with a hammer.

Congralutions.
That's the technical equivalent of Duplo.
( Kroney, Mon 12 Nov 2012, 14:46, Reply)

yeah it was pretty easy...
But how do know what sort of thing-a-ma-jig I'll ned to plug it into my new computer?
( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Mon 12 Nov 2012, 14:46, Reply)

Easiest thing would be to get a USB caddy.

( Kroney, Mon 12 Nov 2012, 14:47, Reply)

It's a toshiba hard drive, does that matter?
edit: don't rad my post below until we have sorted this, kthax
( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Mon 12 Nov 2012, 14:48, Reply)

Too late!
Edit: and no. You'll just need to make sure the caddy is built to accept your type of hard drive. There's two types: SATA and IDE. Get the right type and it's Duplo again.

Get the wrong type and you'll feel a prick.

damn my lightspeed wit!

( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Mon 12 Nov 2012, 14:50, Reply)

I'll have a look on the lable

( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Mon 12 Nov 2012, 14:51, Reply)

If you get the wrong type it'll be obvious that the cables wont fit.

Fair enough, but that'll be an annoying trip bck to Maplin

( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Mon 12 Nov 2012, 14:52, Reply)

Take the hard drive with you, show it to the person with the biggest neck beard.

(PsychoChomp, Mon 12 Nov 2012, 14:53, Reply)

that's the plan

( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Mon 12 Nov 2012, 14:55, Reply)

Or see my post below
and don't be such a spastic. There is no point in getting a caddy as your hard rive is probably about to fail.
(Bazongaloid, Mon 12 Nov 2012, 14:57, Reply)

hard drives are pretty tough
unless it's getting noisy, there's no reason to assume it'll fail.

It's most likely he blocked up the fan vents with dust and dried spunk and overheated the motherboard.
( Kroney, Mon 12 Nov 2012, 14:59, Reply)

it did used to get really hot as the mrs would sit on the sofa with the laptopn on a pillow that blocked the fan
she never would listen, until it smoked at her
( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Mon 12 Nov 2012, 15:02, Reply)

You should smack her in the mouth

(Bazongaloid, Mon 12 Nov 2012, 15:03, Reply)

On the plus side, the pillow wouldn't have blocked the ovary-frying heat.

( Kroney, Mon 12 Nov 2012, 15:08, Reply)

I only needit to work once, then I'll bin it
so I'l go with whatever is cheapest
( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Mon 12 Nov 2012, 15:00, Reply)

hence the feeling a prick

( Kroney, Mon 12 Nov 2012, 14:52, Reply)

will a USB cabby go south of the river, at this time of night?

( the mighty badger Aphrodite, on a bar stool, by your side, Mon 12 Nov 2012, 14:48, Reply)

Are you wanting to replace your existing computers drive or add to it?

(Bazongaloid, Mon 12 Nov 2012, 14:51, Reply)

the old laptop, sort of started smoking then wouldn't turn on
so i'm simply trying to rescue some of the photos etc on the drive
( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Mon 12 Nov 2012, 14:52, Reply)

I've told you this before, but you need this:
www.amazon.co.uk/Bipra-SATA-Adapter-Power-Drive/dp/B001A5SK56/ref=pd_sim_ce_1

Then it doesn't matter what sort of hard drive you have
(Bazongaloid, Mon 12 Nov 2012, 14:56, Reply)

tbh i was hoping for something cheaper. but thanks or the heads up
edit: looks like it's IDE
( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Mon 12 Nov 2012, 14:57, Reply)

But this way, when your wife fucks up the new laptop, you'll be able to rescue the next drive

(Bazongaloid, Mon 12 Nov 2012, 15:03, Reply)

If your computer was over like 8 years old it was IDE, if not it'll be SATA

(PsychoChomp, Mon 12 Nov 2012, 15:03, Reply)

this looks about right

lol "sort of started smoking"
Damn those teenage laptops. They get rebellious and once where you had a proper daddy's girl, you've now got a surly bitch that stinks of fag-smoke and spotty cock who won't get out of bed in the morning.

Typical.
