Accessing Files From A Laptop

Hello peeps,

One of my neighbours has a loptop that won't boot up, and she has a cv and photos etc on the drive that she needs.

Could I take the hard drive out, connect it to my pc as a slave, then copy the stuff she wants??

In my head I think it will work, but I want to make sure 100% before I put a smile on her face

Thanks.

I have a usb external hub for 2.5 & 3.5 drives. I just hope it fits in it. From what she said the laptop wont boot beyond the first few lines of bios, so Im guessing the drive is ok. If not Ill be back on here

She is going to take the laptop somewhere to be fixed, if it can't then she will take me up on my offer. Thanks for the help guys.
