Choosing an HDD docking station

digitech have such a product called a usb3.0 sata hdd docking station---xc4696 available for Jaycar electronics shops ( around $50.00 aud ) there is also an adapter that fits inside the docking station to be able to use pre sata hdds as well

Okeba 2.5" 3.5" SATA IDE Hard Disk Drive HDD Dock Station Clone With USB HUB card reader - CA130 From - Rakuten.com,
or: Sisun 2.5"/3.5" IDE SATA HDD Docking Station +Card Reader Hub - From Amazon.com

The Y-2041 comes with a 12V 4A power supply which is not quite as large as the typical laptop supply. It is manufactured by Ktec and the model is KSAH1200400T1M2.

Buy an external caddy/docking station for your hard disk (IDE or SATA), take the drive out and attach it directly to another PC and access it from windows on the other machine to save your data.

Did you have them plugged in before or after you powered the laptop on? Reboot.

You must remove the hard drive and get an external enclosure for it. Best Buy or Microcenter will be able to help you with finding the correct enclosure (You will want a 2.5" enclosure in either IDE or SATA. The hard drive will have the type printed on it to help you decide).

This can then be plugged into your new computer to transfer data. Bugs won't be transferred, but viruses could be if they infected your personal documents, but your virus scanner should be able to catch that.

An nice old machine!
If I recall correctly, FDISK low level formats partitions and I don't think the new hard drive will accept it without struggling. The bios on the mother board will not accept a drive as large as 250Gb as they didn't exist when the Bios was made.
Try partitioning as you require and format either FAT16 or FAT32 with another machine and see if it will accept it. I think the Bios was restricted to 6Gb drives so you may need to set up a lot of partitions!

Hope this helps.

Remove the battery and see if it starts up fine, if not then try the following:

1. Unplug your charger cord.
2. Remove the battery.
3. Press and hold the "Power" button for 30 seconds or longer
4. Now plug back in the power/charger cord.
5. Now put the battery back in.
6. See if it starts up now, laptops often get stuck in hibernate mode.

Have you considered an external case for your old hard drive? These can be found at newegg and tiger direct. I have successfully gotten data off of some old laptop drives this way. Hopefully your drive was/is not encrypted or this solution will probably not work.
In order to know if the drives will fit you would have to look up the specifications for both laptops. Look to see if they are both the same as far as hard drive size (2.5, etc), connector (IDE or SATA). One problem you will encounter just swapping out the drives is that there will be new hardware in the new computer and Windows sometimes reacts badly to a big change in system components. Sometimes it will blue screen, sometimes it will ask you to reregister and boot up, but even then you can have problems. Hopefully this helps some.

dear friend you can buy casing for laptop's hdd casing

just open the hdd and check whether it has abt 40 pins are oi has two connectors

if 40 pins, buy a casing for normal hdd

if two sockets you can just plug into any pc that has sata hdd support
