Hi there n00b101,

So the drive works fine on your friend's laptop but it crashes on your desktop? If this is the case, you can just take the data off when it is connected to your friend's system.
After the drive is not detected by your BIOS at all, it may be a good idea to check your connections. Try connecting it to a different SATA port as well as try using different cables.

Cheers,
