This will work with a External drive, your Notebook HD must be readable.

If your HD is so bad that you can not read the data, HD will need to be sent away to a recovery expert.

Thanks! sorry a quick question
would it be useful to copy the windows folder into the external hdd too??
i will be reinstalling a new home premium version anyway but im wondering if copying the windows folder gives any benefits such as recovering old files/device drivers
