Is there a way I can back up my files to my external hard-drive thingy from a startup menu (considering my account doesn't load) So I can backup my files to that?
and if not how do I go about copying files from my hard drive to the computer downstairs? D: (sorry, I'm helpless lol)
A second computer is the easiest way to do things. You might be able to use a CD/DVD bootable version of Linux, but I've never done it and wouldn't know where to begin.
