Now that's interesting, I have an old hard drive kicking around here that sudddnly stopped 'existing'...

if it still spins your in with a chance, if the motor doesn't feel like its running your less likely to get success.

Its good for retrieving otherwise lost info, but i wouldn't trust the drive with anything important after its done that sort of thing, they have a habbit of doing the same again!

Ah, I'd be less optermistic that being the case. Quite a few i've known to be fine, then you reboot the machine and its gone forever. less well known brands seem more prone to failing like that (one customer we work with decided to rollout a load - Hypertec i think. Within 3 months we had to go back and swap them all out as they started failing en masse and swapping them out for Samsung ones instead). Still no harm in trying though.

I might have a couple of pictures, but I think they were general pictures...

I'll try to remember to have a look tomorrow and if I find anything, and I'll let you know...

You should have said, we did the one in the Ascot on Monday, you could have called round and seen how it's done.

I've been a tad busy the last two weeks - my little boy was born on the 12th and I think abandoning him and his mummy to go looking at car stuff would have been frowned upon :P

I'm back at work now, which is how I've found time to start looking forums again.

Congrats, now you've got an apprentice. Having someone with little hands is always useful.
