I need to transfer 50 gig of data off my laptop. I know there is a way to boot up the lappy as a hard drive connected to my main computer. I just don't remember it. Any help?

Ok -- this is getting way GAY Nate!!!!!!

Who you callin Nate?

my alter ego it appears.... Maybe I should call it Ted.

My Ted comment on the other post came before yours....... weird :cue rod serling:

we are alternating posts.

If it's a Mac laptop, run a firewire cable between them and then start the laptop up while holding down the T key. It will start up in target disk mode and just show up like a normal hard drive. Just eject it from the computer like a normal drive before disconnecting.

Windoze- I have no idea. Get a Mac.

T, that's it!!!! (yes it is a mac)


Thanks so much Kristen.

People are beginning to wonder why I'm crying at my cubicle...
