Where does Firefox Store the bookmarks in the bookmark bar for Windows and is t viewable using a text editor?
My PC's motherboard has fried and as such I am working of a beatup laptop. I have a device allowing me to hookup my sATA drive to my laptop and would like to find my bookmarks I store in the bookmark bar without losing the one on my laptop.
Thanks.

The bookmarks are stored in a file called places.sqlite in the profile folder. This file is not viewable in a text editor.
One way to do this would be to create a new profile (Firefox stores user data in the profile folder), you can then copy the bookmarks and other user data such as passwords to the new profile. You will then have access to the data from the PC and will still have your current laptop data in its own profile.
For details on doing this see Creating a new Firefox profile on Windows and Recovering important data from an old profile.
