Hi All
Trying to recover address book from a totally crashed machine. Computer store tech says that the hard drive is toast. Windows won't start.
- Sony laptop
- Win 2000 Pro
- error while booting is "missing or corrupted SYSTEMced"
Would anyone know how to recover data with this?
What I was thinking is that perhaps the hard drive could be pulled, and then change the jumpers so that the laptop drive is just for data, and then hook it up as a data drive on a desk top to see if at least the files can be searched.
Sound reasonable?
Thanks
