Well, I screwed up big time today. The long and the short of it is that I spilled water on my MacBook Pro and the motherboard is shot. However, the hard drive seems to be okay. So I plugged the SATA cable into my PC, win 7 32bit, however I cannot find the drive. I just wanna copy some stuff over. Does anyone have any ideas?

You need to download a driver for windows to view the mac file system... search for an HFS+ driver
Even better, goto an Apple Support community :-)
One example:

there are plenty of others. I used one at home for winXP to write to hfs+

My laptop used to come with windows 10, but then I decided to install ubuntu on it instead. Now I would like to install windows 10. Is there way to get windows 10 back?
First you will need a bootable USB - a USB flash drive that has at least 16GB of space (there are free programs that you will find available on internet to make the USB bootable), download Windows 10 ISO file and add to the USB.
Alter the BIOS sequence on your PC so your USB device is first. In most instances, the BIOS will usually not be automatically set to your device. If you skip this step, your computer will start regularly from your hard drive instead of getting boot information from your USB device, then follow the steps to install the windows OS.

Is it possible?
I've tried adding the external drive (i.e., drive to be backed up) in Windows backup options, but I just get an error (0x80070032).
If it matters, I'm using an HDD for backup, and an SSD that needs to be backed up.
I came across "AOMEI Backupper". It does the job, and actually did save me from losing 6 months of work (from home). However, I ended up just buying a bigger SSD and backing up to an external SSD (so I have a portable copy if needed).
AOMEI works, but is a little "rough around the edges", if you know what I mean..

I don't understand that StackExchange, where I can post question about computers, so I think, this will be good.
Friend of mine wanted to reinstall windows and clear everything. He had windows XP. He don't know a lot of computers, so I decided, I will do that. I took his HDD to home and connected to my computer. Installation of windows XP started and everything worked well.
But when I bring HDD back to his computer and connected it, all I get after start computer is that (picture bellow). It is something like cursor, flashing on screen and never end. Does someone know, what could went wrong, when that worked well in my PC and its same windows, which he had before? (Sorry for bad english)
Windows is configured based on the hardware underneath. Installing windows in one system and then placing the HDD in another usually does not work. Use a Bootable USB to install Windows in the system as the DVD Drive isn't functional.

I used my usb drive on my brother's laptop, after which all of my files and folders look like in this picture:
If the laptop has renamed them, then you most likely have a virus/malware! Run your UPDATED anti-virus on your computer, run it with the USB drive included for the virus scan or format the USB. MalwareBytes Anti-Malware software will help too. Also, your brother's laptop needs a to be cleaned of infection too. Good luck!

What happens if I finish the drive letters?
It's just curiosity, but I have a lot of letters and it happens that I float around 20 when I have everything connected
This image is not mspaint. I subst'ed all drives, even B:
Then, I plugged a card reader that has 4 drives. Nothing showed up!
So, the answer to your question is NOTHING! You are just unable to add more.
Of cource you can use volume mounting as suggested above
It depends on your operating system. Some older versions of windows supported up to 32 drives (mapped to things like [: and `:), but more recent versions do not.
On a modern Windows machine, if you require more than 26 drives, the correct solution is to use Volume Mount Points
