so my laptop crashed [dell d610](mere days before a paper im working on is due, of course). im getting a”no bootable devices” error at startup.
i removed the hard drive [hitachi 60gb travelstar] and hooked it up to USB with a sata connector to my other laptop [toshiba m205], but its not recognizing the drive. it shows it in the plug/play and device manager as a “disk drive” and in the system tools storage management as “hard drive: unreadable”.
any ideas? i can feel it running, its getting power and everything. thats basically all ive tried (havent tried the old freezer thing orthe taking it apart and splicing 2 hard drives…think i’ll exhaust the sensible options, first).
