I've seen this more times than I care to mention. But it's more than just a blue screen of death. It's also virus' eating boot sectors, corrupted RAID's, damaged partitions and just plain 'I Give Up' Windows operating system problems. They are all catastrophic. They are all recoverable.

I own pretty much every data recovery product I've ever stumbled across.. and some I've become more partial to than others. One in particular is called VirtualLab by binarybiz.com.

This little gem is like the Swiss Army Knife of the Data Recovery World. It recovers hard drives, floppy drives, CD's and DVD's, email.. and yes, gulp, even Macintosh! It's absolutely wonderful, and even now I'm getting giddy with all the features of this nifty program.

So back to your crisis...

Watch how fast you'll have your data back:
1. Remove your hard drive from your computer.
2. Install a new hard drive. Install Windows.
3. Get an external USB enclosure. They are less then $40 online and about $60 from CompUSA or BestBuy.
4. Install your bad hard drive in the external enclosure.
5. Start your computer, download and install VirtualLab.
6. Attach the USB device your hard drive is in.
7. Start VirtualLab.
8. RECOVER YOUR DATA!
9. Breathe a sigh of relief, and stop kicking the dog.

So, in less then TEN steps you've gone from crisis to paradise. You still have the menial task of installing your applications and customizing your PC, but it beats the heck out of losing all your data.. forever. I just did this entire process for a customer (at the rate of $150 per hour, while he watched) and he said 'Hey, that was easy. I could have done that!', and I could not have agreed more. While I love the business, some of this stuff I've done so many times I'm suffering brain damage.

The process I've listed above has worked for me more times than I can count, and I am certain it will work for you by gathering easily acquired items from your local computer store. You'll take a disaster and turn it into 'no problem' in less than a couple hours time, and quickly and easily solve the problem yourself. There are a lot of data recovery programs out there, and I personally recommend VirtualLab.

Go ahead, recover your data yourself. You'll save a ton of money and time, and get all your critical data back!

Good luck and best regards!
