1. Put your laptop drive in the fridge (or on top of an air-conditioner if you have no fridge nearby).
2. Buy a 2.5 - 3.5" HDD adapter.
3. Plug your laptop drive into the adapter and attach it to a desktop machine (leaving the CPU case open).
4. Copy your files in chunks from the laptop drive to the desktop drive.
5. When the drive fails, put it back in the fridge for half an hour. Repeat steps 3 to 5 until there's no response left.
