Click the power button an click a few times F8. then start in save mode. If it works then try to backup your book from there. After that start with the last windows restore point.<BR /><BR /><BR />Hope this helps.<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Sat, 05 Nov 2005 15:07:09 GMT https://community.sony.sk/t5/pcs-accessories/need-to-get-data-off-my-hard-drive/m-p/56033#M104346 seb21__ 2005-11-05T15:07:09Z Re: need to get data off my hard drive https://community.sony.sk/t5/pcs-accessories/need-to-get-data-off-my-hard-drive/m-p/56034#M104347 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>thanks...have tried, but wont even boot in safe mode<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Sat, 05 Nov 2005 15:21:37 GMT https://community.sony.sk/t5/pcs-accessories/need-to-get-data-off-my-hard-drive/m-p/56034#M104347 martinh 2005-11-05T15:21:37Z Re: need to get data off my hard drive https://community.sony.sk/t5/pcs-accessories/need-to-get-data-off-my-hard-drive/m-p/56036#M104348 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>test<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Sat, 05 Nov 2005 16:09:33 GMT https://community.sony.sk/t5/pcs-accessories/need-to-get-data-off-my-hard-drive/m-p/56036#M104348 seb21__ 2005-11-05T16:09:33Z Re: need to get data off my hard drive https://community.sony.sk/t5/pcs-accessories/need-to-get-data-off-my-hard-drive/m-p/56037#M104349 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Have you tried making a boot disk with NTFS for DOS from bootdisk.com?<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Sat, 05 Nov 2005 21:40:27 GMT https://community.sony.sk/t5/pcs-accessories/need-to-get-data-off-my-hard-drive/m-p/56037#M104349 kee-lo_ 2005-11-05T21:40:27Z Re: need to get data off my hard drive https://community.sony.sk/t5/pcs-accessories/need-to-get-data-off-my-hard-drive/m-p/56040#M104350 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>No i havnt..just had a look at the site and completly lost?<BR />What do i need to download and how do i use it?<BR /><BR />Martin<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Sun, 06 Nov 2005 11:58:13 GMT https://community.sony.sk/t5/pcs-accessories/need-to-get-data-off-my-hard-drive/m-p/56040#M104350 martinh 2005-11-06T11:58:13Z Re: need to get data off my hard drive https://community.sony.sk/t5/pcs-accessories/need-to-get-data-off-my-hard-drive/m-p/56042#M104351 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>You could aslo try to boot via network. Or connect the harddisk directly to another PC. You should be able to read and save the files then. Maybe the PC store in your near is able to do that.<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Sun, 06 Nov 2005 13:17:55 GMT https://community.sony.sk/t5/pcs-accessories/need-to-get-data-off-my-hard-drive/m-p/56042#M104351 seb21__ 2005-11-06T13:17:55Z Re: need to get data off my hard drive https://community.sony.sk/t5/pcs-accessories/need-to-get-data-off-my-hard-drive/m-p/56045#M104352 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Took out the disc, but it is sata and my other pc's are ide<BR /><BR />Thanks though<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Sun, 06 Nov 2005 14:29:01 GMT https://community.sony.sk/t5/pcs-accessories/need-to-get-data-off-my-hard-drive/m-p/56045#M104352 martinh 2005-11-06T14:29:01Z Re: need to get data off my hard drive https://community.sony.sk/t5/pcs-accessories/need-to-get-data-off-my-hard-drive/m-p/56046#M104353 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hmmm, thats bad.
