ok, so this error comes up randomly one day on a blue screen on my laptop:
STOP: 0x0000007E (0xc0000005, 0x8AD101c4, 0xBA58FB04, 0xBA58F800)
hdd = dead
i usb-ed it to my other laptop, and windows 7 recognizes it as a HDD but says it isnt accesible and needs to be formatted to be used. i have used about 10 different free and purchased programs, including such standouts as pc inspector file recovery, active partition recovery, getdataback, and testdisk to no avail. they all either find nothing, or a bad partition, or garbage data. used chkdisk, as well…windows says it isnt accesible, so it cant do anything. also, one of them mentioned something about overlapping partitions.
ideas?
