Hello,
My wife picked up my computer bag which I hadn't closed properly. Result : A 1 yard/meter fall onto a wooden floor. From a domestic peace point of view we're both to blame so that's cool.
Problem is my Amilo no longer boots. I get to the Fujitsu-Siemens splash screen with the F2/F12 options on the bottom.
The F2 gives me the "Please Wait.." message on the bottom and the F12 does nothing.
The progress bar on the bottom makes it to about 60% across and then freezes for 10 seconds before rebooting and repeating the same process.
When I listen to the hard drive it doesn't make any strange noises, then again I never listened to it before.
I cannot boot from DVD/CD.
I'm thinking a sick disk and will go buy another one for a clean install unless someone has ideas to the contrary that could help me out.
If anyone has any suggestions for disk recovery tools to get my data from the sick disk that would be most appreciated also. Don't even ask if I had a full up-to-date backup.
I'll be most grateful for any advice / Colm
