Getting files from windows 7 hard drive on an xp computer

[aaronj411]

I have a broken laptop running Windows 7. I removed the hard drive and want to retrieve pictures and files. Can I hook it up to my pc running windows xp and get my pictures? Please help!

In the off-chance that the drive is partitioned in GPT mode, then Windows XP won't see the file system. MBR mode should be OK, though.
