Chosen solution

Your computer's hard drive quit. Therefore, if Firefox was not setup to the Firefox Sync and if no Firefox application data was stored on an external hard drive, you can't restore the data.

Sorry, but you can try taking the old computer to a professional to see if they can remove the old data from the device.
