Might be a long shot but this is a knowledgeable community.
My laptop died - had a startup loop for windows 7 which I fixed numerous times but couldn't by the end of it's life so I built a new PC. I'd like to try and extract some data off of that hard drive if I can.
So I plugged the laptop hard drive into my new PC as a slave drive - even made sure the BIOS was in the correct order - should be starting Windows 10 from my SSD but no matter what I do the old laptop hard drive seems to trump everything and forces the Windows 7 startup loop (which cannot be repaired)
I was looking at the drive in the cmd prompt and it seems as though the old hard drive has turned in the RAW format.
So I cannot start my computer with this drive plugged in - or startup loop and therefore I cannot use any tools to try and extract the data.
Any ideas?
