1) backup the old HD with Ghost once you've got it running in the PC. Use the full-sector-by-sector entire HD switches to make a 100% image of the whole thing. 2) Or try plugging the HD into a new MB that supports large HDs (which is why I think you've got that silly controller board in the PC). Then, image a copy off with Ghost, Partition Magic, etc. 3) Once you've got a sector-by-sector backup, you can send the old HD back and play with the image instead. 4) You can simply plug both HDs in and image from original to new one, then work on the new one to see if you can recover anything. 5) programs like Ontrack easy recovery and other free data recovery tools for HDs can help you here. Also, walk the old HD with WinHex or a good disk hex editor and see if there is anything on the actual sectors themselves. ===== adorable toshiba libretto The latest news and information for the Toshiba Libretto owner. http://www.silverace.com/libretto/ __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
