All of a sudden my computer froze. I had no idea why, but noticed a faint click, click, click noise coming from my computer. I shut everything down and rebooted. Boot disk failure it says! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rant.gif I notice the click, click, click again and realized it was my secondary drive. I disconnected it (it was slave to my boot drive) and tried rebooting again. It works, WHEW!!! Most of my info is safe, but my mp3 collection, pics and just a bunch of multimedia files are now gone. Does anybody know how to recover the files? I assume the click, click, click is from the HD head getting stuck somehow. Any way to dislodge it without screwing the whole thing up? Well, how much more can I screw it up, right? The info isn't worth the $$$ to get profesionals to recover it, but I would love to be able to just copy everything onto another drive. I think I heard once that I should freeze it? Not sure if that's for real or not. Would smacking it on my table work? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif Computer experts, I need your help! Even a partial recovery if better than none.
