Thsnkd for the help guys. I'm using the wifes laptop now. I have a couple questions-
What CD do I boot from? Windows XP? All I really want off the HD is my Firefox bookmarks, downloaded PDF files and maybe a few pictures. Fortunately I uploaded a mess of pics to Photobucket recently. I'd also like to get my Quicken files. Assuming I can get it to boot off a CD, how do I go about getting the files I want? I could do without the PDFs if I could at least copy down the names and locations I got them from.'
Part 2- Can you recommend a beginners guide/website for all this stuff? The nomenclature, the mechanics, etc? It does little good to tell me what someone else might do when I have no understanding of the process whatsoever. As far as I know these things run on magic pixie dust and green smoke. Yes, I can navigate Windows and fix simple software glitches, but as far as taking things apart, wiping drives, adding good stuff, I gots nuthin'.
Thanks again.
ETA- Mark, why do I never want a "Quick Boot" enabled?

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
