Either he needs to convince someone to help him perform the tutorials that you posted (both were different people doing the exact same fix) if he can't do that himself. Plan "B" might be to take the PCB from a good drive (the same make and model) and replace it with the one on the bad one. Plan "C" is to send to the expensive data recovery people. By expensive I mean thousands of dollars. Spinrite is not going to help here. Otherwise he is up the creek. > This apparently shows how to solve the problem: > * http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=29FztWJVxbM -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkt6UZsACgkQwRXgH3rKGfNOZwCeOez6B6G4Cb3zFBx+B5RpWIIG takAn1hqLS3mJcRJnz034ZpIppGmE2Li =1Rbx -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ clug-talk mailing list [email protected] http://clug.ca/mailman/listinfo/clug-talk_clug.ca Mailing List Guidelines (http://clug.ca/ml_guidelines.php) **Please remove these lines when replying
