Hello need to get back into the scene

I've been away from the scene for about a month and a half and a lot has happend (keep up the good work) but i would like to know what programs would now fit my needs the best. Ok i have keylauncher 4 ( is that outdated) and i want to stick my hdd into my pc and put games on it like that mainly cuz i dont have a flip top anymore ( what would happen if i put the top of my v7 onto my model 500001 would it not be snugg or is it simple impossibel, i havent tried cuz i dont want to crack my case if it wont work) I have dl hdl dumb but hdd went bugg so what should i use. I have some pc skills but nothing outside of simple stuff. Also if anyone is still using the crossover method i have the cable... Any help would be nice and if rules have changed and i am posting in the wrong forum im sorry. Any help would be appreciated... but as Denzel would say... tell it to me like im a three year old
Thanks in advanced for anyone willing to take the time to help a reborn newb. By the way ive looked in some of the new hdd forum topics but so many are overwelming Thanks

ok i successfully put the hdd in my comp and ran LordBoGaMi's program but nothing happend i saw how to put things directly onto my ps2 but i want to dump them onto the hdd. Im going to go try win hiip stillany help would be great

nevermind the post i read about winhiip errors kinda scared me any other good programs for a first time hddumper

y'know whats better than creating a thread and replying to your own posts? searching the forums.. its really not that hard.. i dont mean to sound rude or anything, but you just proved me right with your 2 replies.
