How can I access files to an old pc that got a virus?

Posted: 21 Mar 2021 01:58 AM PDT

So I have my old computer from like 2010 and I use to have a lot of "OG" gamertag and accounts and hopefully some sort of crypto. Nonetheless there are a lot of good memories in those files, I would really like to get them back.

But my computer got a virus and quit working and I think I tried restoring the HDD which I think I can still access the files even after that?

Anyway, is there some kind of cable I can buy to hook up from the pc to my new pc and be able to access the files? Or is there any way possible I can get into it? It would be a very successful long mission if I can get in lol

Any ideas would be appreciated.

I like browsing this wikipedia page: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_unsolved_problems_in_computer_science

So it got me wondering if this subreddit knows any interesting problems that have been solved recently?

Sequential consistency and casual consistencty ? - ELI5?

I don't seem to understand this at all, at some point I kinda do but then I'm lost.

Why is it sequential consistency if we have 4 processer, 1 and 2 do their own Write operation, but p3 and p4 need to read in the correct order?

Is sequential consistency all about the processors that read / get a value? not about writing?
