Hard Drive Clicking

November 24th, 2011, 8:27

Hello all,

I have a bit of a problem, my hard drive recently started clicking and I am not able to start up Windows Xp without completly disconnecting the drive. The drive is a Seagate Barracuda 500GB and I was wondering if the hard drive is fried? I have almost 120 Gigs of data on the drive and don't really want to format it, but I will if I need to. I don't want to spend alot of money getting it fixed either. I really just want to pull pictures off the drive.

Thanks

Not DIY fix most likey faulty heads.
If data is important then seek a dr pro.
