So you have 3 hard drives with images you want from them? It should simply be a matter of connecting those drives to a working computer and copying them. You may have permissions problems depending on how Windows was configured and where the files were stored (what folders). If so, you will need to "take ownership" of the folder(s) you want to access.

I would suggest getting yourself a USB flash drive (maybe more than one) and put your precious images on that. You should also get an external hard drive and use that to backup your entire system. Remember, he who laughs last has a backup.
