Seriously, if you don't know what you're doing, as in, don't have or know the right tools, I reckon you should not be playing around inside the computer. Take it to a pro and shell out a few bucks extra. You risk zapping yourself, setting up a fire hazard, or most likely, just overloading and frying some important components.
A mate of mine had a similar problem, his laptop was just not starting (OS compromised) and so had the great idea to connect the laptop hard disk to his desktop computer. Ooops. Different voltages. Sizzlesizzlezipppffftt. Imagine watching 15,000 words of your thesis - about 2 months of work - climbing to the ceiling on a thin wisp of smoke. ooohhhh dear.
