Q. I have a second hard drive on my computer that I used for file storage, (ie MP3s, movies, pictures, ect).
I accidentally loaded windows XP onto this drive, and now all the files are gone.
What is a good data recovery program? Can I do this myself?

I should note that the people who say the data is gone are dead wrong. As I can see some of the files when I open up the drive with Disk Doctors NTSF Data Recovery tool. SHould I use this software? Or use GETDATABACK or VirtualLab Client 5?

A. There's no way you can completely recover files from a formatted drive. But try using File Recovery.exe. This can recover some of your files but I think most of them are already corrupted.

How can I tell if a computer's hard drive is physically damaged?
Q. I am having boot problems with XP and several Recover command prompts are turning up bad results:
FIXMBR - " . . . The disk may be damaged"
FIXBOOT - "The boot sector cannot be fixed"
CHKDSK - "The specified drive is not valid, or there is no disk in the drive."
Also, I heard the hard drive clicking/crunching when I ran FIXBOOT.
So is my hard drive physically shot? How can I tell for certain?
P.S. - Luckily I had recently placed all of my valuable data on an external hard drive, so data recovery is not an issue for me.

A. Find out the manufacturer and model of the drive. Then go out to the manufacturer's site. Look for a diagnostic utility that's usually a free download. Run a full test of the drive to be sure.
You can also try the drive in another PC as a slave, then run Windows scandisk on it, but the diagnostic utility is the most thorough.
