you cant. You need to back up your files "Before the train wreck".

If possible take out the drive goto your PC store and get something you can use to plug it into another Computer. Via USB.

Good luck

Maybe. It depends on the nature of the failure. You won't know until you try and see.

I do a lot of PC work, Microsoft licensed. I have had a lot of luck plugging into my GIGABYTE motherboard. It is an 8 core with a 1000 watt power supply. I use Data Rescue PC3 software, Mini partition wizard as well. Sometimes I even reformat and can still recover lost files. If it is a non working hard drive, and you have files or data you dont want anyone to recover(forensic)drill holes through it every where. I love your torrents, thanks for all the great uploads. Good luck on the recovery.
