My hard drive as of a couple days ago would not boot up, it kept restarting when loading ipvsmon.sys. So i bought a new hd and started over, installing windows and downloading everything I need, but I still have important files that i need to retreive.

Is there any way I can use the hard drive that has messed up SYS file as the slave HD, and just access the files and transfer them? I dont want to pay $50 for some guy to do it in 10 minutes

please help :confused:
 
Well, just hook it up and try. It'll appear at the first free drive letter in windows, if it's recognized.
(Are you sure it's failing, and it wasn't a software-caused error, btw?)
 
i have had several virus notifications, but it said they were quarantined. I didnt really know what that meant but thought it meant everything was safe. I never restarted my computer. But one time i had to and when i rebooted...it wouldnt load windows. Crashed at the loading of ipvsmon.sys everytime
