Colm 0 Posted October 11, 2010 trying to get a snapshot out of an old dvr, for court evidence the dvr has no name on it or dvd wr or usb point, just 2 hard drives and a 25pin I/O output am thinking if i get a lead with 25 pin to maybe usb end them I can plug it into my Pc and get the info extracted just not sure if this will do it or if i need a cross over lead for the same really needing a bit of advice and sorry for the impatientness Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
