Getting data off old drive

[Sherm]

My old boot drive suffered from a virus which i cleaned. However it then suffered issues with opening applications and generally was a pain in the...

I bought a new boot drive and re-installed windows etc. Now, what do you guys think of attaching the old drive for me to collect my itunes folder? Before i took the drive out McAfee said the drive was clear of any viruses.

If i don't run anything and just copy the files that i need, then scan them i guess, what are the chances of infecting the new drive and op system?

Thanks

Thats what i was thinking, it's only my itunes folder that i need and won't open anything else and definitely wont run anything!

So you reckon attach it and run a scan straight away on it?

LOL yeah i know what you mean, but i have taken the routine of having a boot disk with just os and applications and pics and stuff on other drives. But last time i did a re-install i forgot to move my itunes library to another drive

tbh, i guess the other drives are just as dangerous to my os drive as the old boot drive i am going to attach.

either way if i scan the life out of everything and do not run anything i guess i should be ok.
