Varus Torvyn Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 One of the worst things that can happen to a gamer: In the dead of night, water from my air conditioner poured out onto the attic floor, soaking the ceiling. You can guess the next part: the part that fell destroyed my PC. Trying to recover everything is a bear. Does anyone have a good URL for the Bethesda Forum? Google doesn't list it for some reason, and I need to get in touch with a couple of members over there. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bben46 Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 You might try recovering the hard drive. Make sure it is completely dry and clean. Then use a usb to hard drive adapter such as Cables to go Model 30504 or similar. - about US $20 or less. You can plug any SATA or IDE hard drive into a usb and read it. The computer should recognize it as a removable storage device. I have recovered nearly all data from several unbootable hard drives this way. As it uses a separate isolated power supply it should be safe even if the drive will not spin up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
