RE: [OT] busted HD help




Yeah I have one ..well actually I have a HD enclosure for 2.5" hard
disk
with USB and Firewire connections.

I have done it many times for my own laptop ... but this is someone elses
. I don't want to void their warranty.

Strangely though .. I am using salvation scan and it only sees 5,7231mb of
a 60gb hard disk?

This could be related to the previous message when I tried to install XP
again .. I think the HD has corrupted at that point .. hence why I cannot
do a dir.
