Advice needed on the laptop hard drive data recovery.
Hello
I was wondering if someone could provide some advice on the recovery of data from an ACER laptop which was held in Microsoft Vista?
The laptop broke due to the 'PIN' inside the power supply's cable breaking. PC World said that it would cost hundreds of pounds to repair.
I have some important files saved on the drive hard (backup files conveniently failed too!) and I'd like back them.
What are my options? Should I seek professional IT useful to do? Or I can try to get files back myself? I currently have a Toshiba laptop that works under XP.
Hello Chris,
I by removing the hard drive and put it in a USB enclosure. There are 2 types of one HD is IDE the other is SATA. You can buy one from Newegg.com for less than $ 15. You may need to take possession of the disc and its files if you do this. Here are the steps: to take ownership of a file or a folder how to appropriate a file you must have owner of a protected file to access. If another user has restricted access and you are the computer administrator, you can access the file to appropriate.

- Click on the Security tab, and then click OK in the security message (if one appears).
- Click Advanced, and then click the owner tab.
- In the name list, click administrator, or click the Administrators group, and then click OK.
The administrator or the Administrators group now owns the file.

- In the list enter the object names to select (examples) , type the user or group account that you want to have access to the file. For example, type administrator.
- Click OK.
- In the group or user names list, click the account you want, and then select the check boxes of the permissions you want to assign to this user.
- When you're done to assign permissions, click OK.
- You can now access the file.
How to capture a record you must have ownership of a protected folder to access. If another user has restricted access and you are the computer administrator, you can access the folder by taking possession.

- Right click on the folder that you want to take control and then click Properties.
- Click on the Security tab, and then click OK in the security message (if one appears).
- Click Advanced, and then click the owner tab.
- In the name list, click your user name, click administrator if you are logged in as administrator, or click the Administrators group. If you want to take ownership of the contents of the folder, select the check box Replace owner of subcontainers and objects .
- Click OKand then click Yes when you receive the following message is displayed:You are not allowed to read the contents of directory folder name. Do you want to replace the the directory permissions with permissions granting you full control?
All permissions will be replaced if you click Yes. Note folder_name is the name of the folder you want to take charge.
- Click OK, and then reapply the permissions and security settings that you want for the folder and its contents.
Let us know whether, if that helps you. Make it a great day!

Hello
You need two cables, one is a sata cable:
This cable is only for data and connect the hard drive to the SATA connector on the motherboard.
The other cable is energy:
http://www.itpartsdirect.com/STARTech-15-24cm-4-pin-Molex-to-SATA-power-cable-adaptor.html
It connects the hard drive to the PSU.
You can also buy a combo like this cable:
http://www.Amazon.co.UK/DP/B00064GBT4/?tag=hydra0b-21&hvadid=9550951989&ref=asc_df_B00064GBT4
All you have to do is to connect the hard drive and that's it. Make sure that the main drive with the operating system is connected to the primary SATA connector (I think there are the numbers 1, 2, 3...)

Thank you

Hello
Standard 2.5 "HDD and SDS have same long dimension and width, single thickness can be the difference (7mm, 9mm, or some thicker). SSD's are normally more thin (only 7mm), but they will come a plastic or rubber frame making them to 9.5 mm. In short: you can buy any standard form factor 2.5 " SSD for your notebook.
Kind regards.

I installed it and trying to explore my computer tells me I need to format it. I didn't thik I deleted anything on the old hard drive. It comes as Disk (I) Local what software can I use to get down the hard drive damaged my old photos and others.
Thanks for the reply. I found a repair shop who told me they could get all my photos and others out of it for me. At a cost of $25 to $ 75. I cannot yet understand is happening other that some security software that my Bank suggested I have download. Once I downloaded it the safety scanner Microsoft occupy one would not work. After speaking with the support of software (Trusteer report) I managed to uninstall the software, but the next day after uninstall the system just kept in a boot loop. Nothing works. I don't know that I erase what either, so I should be able to get my family photos.
Thanks again

Refusal to recognize the laptop hard drive (not a drive issue)
My drive hard portable Lacie just stopped working, it worked fine for about 2 years.
Device Manager recognizes the drive.
I think I can see the drive in disk management (classified in good health).
I can't access all files on the drive because it does not appear in the Explorer as a disk.
I contacted the manufacturer who recommended two options: either download recovery software or drop it off at a professional data recovery. I downloaded the software (Data Rescue 3, Alsoft), but cannot use it, because the software cannot recognize the drive :(
Is it possible that I can 'run' the drive to which it is connected to? Is there another way to launch the reader? While I can run the software on that data?
The driver is up to date and is not defective.
Any help much appreciated! I have rather not risk losing my data.
Thank you

Installed hard drives data recovery serial
As many other users on these boards, by X 205 won't start.
My question: How can I recover the data on my hard drive, since there are two of them?
I ran a search to find all the files I wanted (*.jpg in this case) and the search came back with hundreds of files (pictures) that I'm trying to recover... but it wont let me open them.
I guess because the disks are installed in this machine series, somehow, I need to find a way to read them both to access these files?Any help is appreciated!
Remove each disk of the machine, connect using 2.5 SATA box at the other PC as external device and you should have access to all stored data.

Satellite A100 - hard drive data recovery
Hello
I recently tried to help a friend for his Toshiba Satellite A100 data recovery, died on this screen.
I thought this would be a task simply remove the hard drive and put a HARD drive caddy and attaching it to another computer.This doesn't seem to work.
Can I put the hard drive in the computer and I can hear start the computer to the top and was able to see it with a LCD display. I was able to delete the data in this way, so we're safe.My question is why do we seem to remove the disc and see on another computer?
I guess it must be an interface or format the laptop can be used for the recovery section and cannot therefore be seen as a normal drive.If I could not delete the data because say the motherboard is dead. Is it possible to be able to see the data on another computer.
E-mail: [[email protected]]
> My question is why do we seem to remove the disc and see on another computer?
Of course you can do if you want to use a symbol external USB SATA controller (external HARD drive) you should be able to connect to another computer.
But if the HARD drive is faulty, it will not work. -
PC HP Compaq 8200 Elite CMT: Replacement of the SSD HARD drive and Recovery Options
I have a PC HP Compaq 8200 Elite CMT I went recently to drive HARD original for one SSD of 850 Evo from Samsung using Samsungs cloning/copying software. Everything went well and the PC is in use today. I do not see the partition D: Recovery on this machine more well, so I think this has not copied or was lost. I still have the disk that was replaced.
I was wondering if there is a way to replace HARD drive like this with an SSD and everything by keeping the system recovery feature that was on the HARD disk, and if a set of system recovery disks of before installing SSD would continue to operate, or if I need to create new ones, and if I CAN create new ones.
I did what you want to do (for example, to replace a disk with a DDI) and was able to retain the function of HP recovery - but it's because of two important facts.
First of all, I used a DDI with the same capacity as the original HARD disk. This is important because if you use a smaller SDS, the HP recovery feature will no more work as a reset begins with reformatting the drive and recreate the original scores - which will fail if the disc is too small.
Second, I use Macrium Reflect product to 'clone' the HDD to the DDI, which means, he made an exact copy of the partitions on disk on the SDS. So, when I swapped drives, the PC restarted without any problem.
People have posted here on the use of the software from Samsung, and they seem to have problems restarting after use and (apparently) with successful copy from disk HARD original in the new SDS.

Hard drive data recovery/transfer
I have a couple of different desktop computers HP Pavilion running Microsoft XP. The oldest machine motherboard has failed, and I added the hard drive of this computer to my another computer as a slave drive, so that I could transfer all files on the computer. When I start the computer I can see the extra disc, all its operating system files and user identities, but when I click on the user, where are the files is stored in the system tells me that this user is not accessible? When the drive was the old computer, I used a login password, such as the computer was shared, but system does not now appear to give me anywhere to type this in. How can I recover all my files?

The "recovery Partition" in question is not a thing of Microsoft. Ask that ever created it (the manufacturer of your computer) which will probably help you not because it's beyond their desire to do so.
I suggest you create / have external media and numbers of series/product key in another place course of the computer itself.
