i am sorry about my grammer could some one help please this drive has all the pictures of my childhood
That's likely a hard drive that is dying, especially considering how old it is by now. Hard drives have physical platters and given enough time, most will eventually fail.
Your best bet right now is to stop using the hard drive completely, getting an external enclosure for it, and trying to recover from it on another PC with software like Recuva.
Best of luck - whether or not you are successful at recovering your photos, please take this as a lesson on having a responsible plan for backing up your important files. Anything important enough to not want to lose is important enough to protect.
