Stick in a freezer overnight.

A co-worker was using his PC last night and heard the hard drive make a
"clunk" and then Windows froze. He rebooted but it froze at the desktop.
Tried rebooting again and it just hangs at POST. He brought me the PC
today to look at. Bios does not recognize that there is a hard drive
attached. Tried the usual of reseating cables and power connections, but
I think the drive has died.
He is a teacher and had this quarter's grade for each of his classes
stored on this hard drive and no backup. Are there any tricks I might be
able to try to get this drive running long enough to pull some data off
of it?
Thanks for any suggestions,
Jerry
