As my specialty is refurbishing old computers, I frequently encounter the situation you describe. How exciting it is when auto-detect in the BIOS correctly indentifies your hard disk. And what a let-down when you find you can't write to it or formatit. The hard disk you describe is unrecoverably dead.

Sorry about the multiple replies. Nothing to do with my ego, but caused be a technical glitch at techrepublic.
