There is the installation disk that would boot up, I haven't tried this
madness of installing windows on a thumbstick, I have managed to install
full systems on them.

If your hd needs to be encrypted I wouldn't trust it on anyone and walk
away from it.  Eventually if it is copied out it may get decrypted given
sufficient time and resources.  It is pretty simple to take a HD out and
a service dept. know how to deal with a laptop without a hd.
So don't hand them out your data if you don't care to share them.

Simple electrical tests, like voltage measured on contacts can tell you
whether the battery holds charge and whether the charge circuit goes on
or not.  In 90% of the time it is a failing battery.
