Dead 500

My 500 video died. Can I take my boot hd and use it in a pc with an emulator? I have a dual boot option in one pc that boots windows from one HD and Linux from a second HD.

It works if your HD controller is RDB compatible (RDB = Partition table format). Some A500 HD controllers use custom partition format.
