How is that disgusting? On my days off, even when my son is gone to his mom's, my body is telling me, "Wake up!" by 8, even if I stay up late.
Usually it happens when the sky starts to get light outside, which is a bit after 6AM this time of year.

But I am not by any means a morning person! Very few people can wake me up and not get glared at. XD But lately, I've just been happy. ;x

You happy people and your reasons to be happy. :|
(Okay, so I'm pretty happy too since the kiddo is around, but still!)

What would be the easiest/cheapest method of getting the stuff off my wife's HDD from her dead computer?
The drive itself is fine, but it's a slimline PC and the PSU went out, it's kinda outdated anyways so she's getting a new one.. I know there are a few different ways I could go about getting the stuff off, just what is the easiest and cheapest to do?

Since you mentioned thinking the HDD was bad... Did you run a check on it from your BIOS? (Should be able to do that, anyway.) I don't seem to have an option to do that.
Hmm... Could at least try Error Checking it?
Open up "Computer" > Right click the HDD > Properties > Tools tab > Error Checking button.
Rarely works but you never know. Did you go ahead and install all the updates available and check your drivers for your HDD and all that stuff? I ran the Error Check, didn't find anything (as expected).
I get errors trying to download updates for windows.

I've tried doing that before, I couldn't ever get it to work, something about the drive being in a 'strange computer' it wouldn't boot or nothing. I'm too lazy to go through a bunch of ***, which is why I said easiest.

You don't have to boot it from yours, plug it into a slot and treat it as a storage drive. You can either transfer the files to your PC, or wait till she gets a new one then open file sharing and send all her files to the new one.

Even if it's slimline, if you have a dual-IDE cable (assuming it's IDE and not SATA):
You can just hook them both up. But being slimline, that would mean having to extend the cable outside of the case and building a case around her old HDD. (Basically, turning the internal HDD into a makeshift external one).
Or, just find an old full-size case and transfer everything into that. (Probably the easier way, unless you LOVE that slimline case.)
EDIT: Or what Dread said. He always beats me to these things!

I'd just go with Dread's idea. As long as your PC or her new one has space for a second HDD, it shouldn't be an issue to hook it up and use it as a slave drive for storage.
I really need to get up to date with hardware stuff. My old PC was from 2001, so my mind still revolves around "IDE ALL the things!"

Still no [+]ing after downloading Java :<
I have pizza so I don't feel TOO bad, but man, did not think a simple Windows reinstall a week ago would turn into all these problems. ; ;

Talk with a local PC supply shop, see if you can't find a SATA to USB or something. You'll still need a power source though... I'd suggest using an old PSU of a different computer, not the one you're on now if you can. I bought a sata/ide combo to usb awhile back, think it ran me maybe $15... Shouldn't be too expensive.
And you probably couldn't slave it straight up, you have to tinker with something to slave most hdd, but I don't recall off the top of my head what you have to change is called. Should be on the hdd somewhere though, like a sticker.

I used to use a PC with two HDs hooked up, but that was IDE too. Would boot off the main one and was still able to store stuff on the 2nd drive.

What do I need to do to be able to open spoilers and + people? ; ;
This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
