Hi, trying to sort a friends laptop out (win 7)
Will not boot at all.
Hard drive at times makes strange noises.
Have put the Hard drive (Western Digital Scorpio Blue 500gb 2.5inch sata)
into a external HD caddy and connected to my laptop.
Sometimes (rarely) it will get picked up and under my computer show 3 partitions.
One will be recovery partition
one the OS partition (C)
and the other one (D) for other data.
Not getting any joy being able to even open (C) to extract persons personnel data off of it.
Any pointers in the right direction would be appreciated please.
Photo's on this hard drive are of great importance. (alas no back up)
Thank you guys
