hi all,
my HD (when placed into two diferent computers) - by the way the HD is not an external one, it was pulled straight out of my laptop and has SATA con. - keeps causing my computers to launch startup repair for which it finishes the repair but shuts down my laptop and when started again it repeats this process.
how do i stop this from happening?

all i need is some of the information from my hardrive but it doesnt seem to help by running start up repair over and over again and i have also tried starting my laptop up in safe mode and restoring it to an earlier point but the files i need were created after the laterst retore option.
pleaSE HELP!! URGENT!
THANK YOU!!!
 
Solution
Taken from a laptop, and put into a desktop?
Are you trying to boot from this drive? Generally no, that will not work.

Connect it as a secondary drive, and you might be able to retrieve what you want.
