Whats the best way of getting data off a dead laptop's hard drive. Tried sticking it another lappy but it blue screened (win2k). Is there any way of connecting a lappy drive to an IDE channel in a regular PC?

You can get cradles which will allow you to fit a laptop harddrive in a desktop chassis, found this site after a quick search in google. Scroll to the bottom of the page to see what you are looking for.

Nick,

I'd got for one as well if you've got a spare.
