Lots of fail; tried to create system image from failing HDD
After seeing the "hard drive error" message fropm Windows and establishing that te hard drive was in fact failing, I attempted to create a system image of the drive to restore it. I freed up some space on my external drive and started the process, but had to leave; I was told that there were error messages, but she couldn't say for certain what they were. I'm thinking write error messages. Anyway I attempted to restore the image but couldn't get the laptop to see the image, or even the drive, so I plugged it into my other laptop and a computer at work. This drive is no longer being recognised anywhere (device manager, disk management). What can I do?
