I had one older working (XP)computer. My sons gave me a newer laptop (windows 7)for my birthday.
I brought both computers to my local computer repair company to copy the data from the old to new to have redundancy. After many weeks of calling them to get an update, them telling me the hard drives are giving them trouble I eventually pick them up and pay $300 for two new hard drives. I am told everything is fine.
I get them home, and there is no old data. They just left out that information. They now say the data wouldn't transfer because of a failing hard drive.
What would you computer guys do to try and retrieve business docs and pictures from the last 5 yrs?
