You can also use a recovery operation like www.retrodata.co.uk,

I've a hard drive that began to fail, sometimes bios recognised it and SO began to
boot, but next to it system reboots.


Now none computer find it. I'm think that hd don't spin, because i dont listen noise.


any tool could access to hd without bios support ?


If it doesnt spin up, no software can access the data.

the hd is a western digital caviar 40gb ide.
