I just had my laptop hard disk crap out on me I think.
After booting up one night it showed unable to read disk press ctrl+alt+del to restart.... I checked in with an HP rep and he said the HDD needed to be replaced, no options. I did a hard drive test under a phoenix bios and I got a 01-07 fail code. My question: Is there anyway we could get the disk running again? I have heard of spinrite being able to do something like this, I'm not sure if it works for drives with vista. Also, is there anyway we could recover data from it? |

You can send it to a specialist who can replace internal parts in a class 100 clean lab.

OK.... is there anyway I can connect it to another computer and do a repair, diagnostic or recovery for it?

Not if it's faulty, it will need parts.

You could try reformatting and re-installing the OS, worked for me on a Dell. Same problem! Same response from vendor!
