Need someone who can help me get data from an old IDE drive onto a USB or other media so I can put it on my HP.
Old drive died a few years back, has Windows98 on it if I remember correctly.
Thanks!

Provost,
Have ordered a converter today. Not oneof the ones you suggested,but another that does the same thing.
Thank you for the guide to getting this started.
Now if I could only find my old Windows install disk for it, I could get that Compaq back running as a stand alone machine.
Have a great day!
