Answer 3

You cannot directly plug the HDD into your laptop because the HDD's for both PC and LT are different.  Even if they are both LT's the LT is only capable of supporting one HDD, not two.  Plug the original HDD into another computer (PC) and set the info from there.  Or switch the HDD in your laptop (if they are both from a laptop) and save the info to a external hard rive or an equivalent.
