I have an old Time (make computer ) , i put it in the old cupboard downstairs . It was working , i tried it yesterday and couldn't load windows . How can i see whats on the hard drives they are ribbon fitting's which i removed .
 
Solution
I don’t know what make of computer you mean but assuming it’s not damaged and working, you‘d need to plug it into a compatible interface in order to try and receive data. There are IDE to USB adapters (I’m assuming that’s the cable type you’re talking about, if not you’d need to look into something else) that you can use to open it on a more modern computer. I have never used this myself though.

Thanks ussnorway , when I put the mouse pointer near the iso file it says 553.0m and a download button appears . I never thought an iso image would be like a cd , I will see if I can download it . Thank you .

I downloaded it , it was 552 mb and it took a full hour to download . It says disc image file , I will try it later probably tomorrow I will burn it to cd .

i have no interest in wondershare dvd creator or any time for driver updaters

the drivers i sent you are the ones in the iso for your camera, just unzip the folder and run the setup.exe to install them

I got those drivers , thanks very much . I thought the drivers were for wondershare as that was not recognising my dvd drive , all i seem to do is make mistakes . I never thought you would send them to my email address .
