How to do a hard drive data recovery on a system that doesn't boot
Suppose you accidentally formatted your hard drive or purposefully
formatted it, even. Then, you remember you had some important files
that you must retrieve.
Can you get the files back?
Can you do a
successful hard drive repair job on a dead computer? What about
resuscitating a FAT (file allocation table) that has been destroyed by a virus?
Even if you
have a Windows XP crash and you cannot take over at the command line to
do a system restore, you can use a good disk recovery program to bring
back life to a dead PC.
If the dead PC is not due to a physical
drive failure, a tried and proven software tool will help to run a
hard drive data recovery successfully.

The hard drive mechanic has been resurrecting bad hard drives since
1997. Now the Gold edition tackles everything from Windows 95 and up.
The Deluxe version only does 95 and 98, you should try the Gold
version for systems higher than 98.
You can do a hard drive data recovery on a dead system even if this software was not
installed before the problem occurred. This is cool, since few of us
ever stock up on all the power tools and utilities until we need them.
Victims of crashed systems have not been scarce with their praises for
this cool piece of hard drive data recovery software. Like this user
from Missouri, who said,
Hi,
I usually don’t give praise easily, however ! Your software
is really “unbelievable”. Although I was skeptical at first, it
worked just as advertised, and even better.
It is easy to use and I recovered a XP 180 GB drive in under
a half-hour; most of the time spent was looking for a mouse
driver.
It certainly is refreshing to use something that really works
in this day and age especially when a lot of software doesn’t.
Purchasing through the internet and downloading was also a
big plus for me.
Thanks so much!

Remember that this hard drive data recovery tool is not a utility to
recover deleted files. Neither
would you use it, or any software, to restore data from a drive
that had been physically damaged.
Use hard drive mechanic gold if...
- your drive has no physical damage BUT it will not boot
- the File Allocation Table (FAT) has been erased or corrupted by
a virus or accidental erasure
- Windows XP is asking you to format your drive when you know you
don't need to
- you want to unformat a drive you formatted
This software does not work with Linux based systems anyway - only
Windows. Also, if you run it on a laptop that has a 'hidden' partition
that stores information when the laptop hibernates, it might report
that there is an extra partition. Don't let this alarm you.
If you're paying hundreds of dollars to troubleshoot and fix a dead
drive that is still physically in tact...
... if that is something you cannot afford
then take the matter in your own hands.
Hard drive data recovery technology has come a long way... and so
can we all.
