Hardisk Recovery

April 27th, 2012, 7:25

HI All,

My Computer was recursively showing the screen of Safe Mode, Safe Mode with Networking etc. during Booting.Then I insert an pirated version of Win XP and try to Repair. But it was not fruitful. Then I Tried to Install Win XP.In this process I first deleted the Partition C: in which WIn XP was previously loaded which was allocated 50 GB. Then i created a partition 15 GB for C: which was successfully created. Then I tried to create a new partition of Rest 35 GB , while doing this Enter Key was pressed. After that the Screen showed Analyzing 150 GB etc. Then there was a blue screen with lot of text. There were also two more drives D: and E: of 50 GB each. Now when i took that system to a engineer he is saying the hard disk is no more usable and also saying that the data that are in the D: and E: drives also not recoverable.

SO please help as there were some financial data of past three years.

IF the drive is still operable the procedure would be: From a working computer get R-Studio. Clone drive. Use R studio to search for raw files on newly cloned drive. If drive is failing- and it is quite likely- pro hardware would be used for cloning to increase chances. That would require a budget for a pro - there are many here that are certain to extract the data. Good luck.
