Recently, my computer went kaput. All I kept getting was a black screen with a moving mouse pointer. At first, I thought it was my video card finally giving out on me. Eventually, however, I found out that if I unplugged my external HDD (WD 1T), my computer would right itself again.
In other words, nothing wrong with the computer, but all my pictures since high school, music, and dozens of games from Steam (my poor save files!) are trapped in the HDD. Manually trying to access the drive only freezes the documents windows, and I've tried Recuva, and it can't access it either.
Any ideas on how to recover the data at all?
