i have a problem i guess my hard drive is dead but i wanna try anyway to get data from it.
it wont boot to disk. i try to format and it says cant read from disk or something. i havent tried a new ide cable yet. but it shows the size of the hard drive and stuff so im not sure what the problem is yet. if anyone has an idea on that let me know.
so i cant even format and setup a partition.
but if im able to get it to recognize that hdd i have 2 partitions and one of them has like 50+ movies on it so i woulda kinda like to keep it. but i tried to put it in my comp as a slave but it wouild get to boot and just say REBOOT or whatever. so i guess the multiple installations of windows is the problem im not sure.
i know that was hard to read but its on te fly. so if anyone can tell me how to format that drive since windows REFUSES to recognize it AND/OR save the data to put on another machine LMK. i would use powermax software to test the drive but it says it wont work iwth nvidia chipsets. its only 3-4 months old so i dont know why it would crash on me with NO warning if thats what has happened.
