hard drive dead?
I recently dropped my laptop and windows wouldn't boot anymore, instead grub4dos booted and none of the options did anything. I put in my repair disk and tried chkdsk c: /f in command prompt, that ran for a few days and it ended up restarting my computer. Grub4dos didn't boot but windows was stuck in a black screen with the text windows is loading files on screen and had a bar that's fully loaded below it. It's been stuck there for hours. I also tried using bootrec /fixmbr and bootrec /fixboot but that did nothing. Windows startup repair gave errors too. Is there anything I can do to recover my hard drive? I need the data on it. I'm also running boot camp on a macbook pro.
any suggestions?
I really need help asap, thanks.
