question1234   06-28-2011 at 07:30:25 PM

Hello,
I have an old..really old...gateway that I just wanted to backup the data from. I tried turning it on, but the power button still glows orange no matter how long I hold it. I havn't really turned the computer on for at least a year, so I'm wondering if its beyond all help? From the last time I turned it on it was working fine, no wierd noises just unbearably slow (and last time was a while ago). The power button is orange and just stays orage, pressed or not. Any help would be appreciated.

Take out the hard-drive, plug it into another PC as a secondary or get a USB enclosure for it. Also no need to start 3 posts on the same thing.
