Sounds like your a real technophobe a hard drive looks like the attatched pictures, but you can't just stick it in, the computer needs to know wht the drive is. Primry or Secondary. If you open up a computer give every thing a good coat of looking at, so when you've finished every ting is back in its right place. Take a picture, NOTE where jumper is on pic 3.

I think I will do what Accyman suggested and take the hard drive out. I'm going to put it in my daughter's pc which is a really old pc anyway so if it all goes belly up then so be it.
I really just want to get my pictures off it, aside from that it can be binned.
Thanks to everyone who has helped and to Accyman for giving me his number, I may very well need it!!
