Thanks for your reply, raptor, but the DBan (the old and new version for core 2) can't even find my HDD. (The connectors were all in their places and I didn't change anything in the bios or something.
Can anyone think of a better solution for my situation? My LAST resort will be going back to the store and change the drive, but I don't want to do that just yet because before formatting the HDD I had ALL my personal stuff in it (not just a couple of word files, I'm talking about an entire unpublished musical CD production, tons of personal files of all kinds with sensitive stuff in it and lots more) and I don't want anyone in some HDD laboratory retrive my stuff. Hey, maybe it's not even formatted... remember, it's not recognized at all...
Oh, man, can anyone PLEASE think about something I can do?
Thanks.
Doron.
