It has been confirmed as dead. Hard drive impenetrable but we were able to get all my files/photos off my Seagate external hard drive. But...no back up for my thousands of emails and outlook contacts. One more shot at another expert trying to extract those two things from the hard drive...if he can't do it, I'm told that it would cost $200-$1000 to hire a company that specialize in this. No can do. $200 yes. Over that no.
Just bought (after research by two tech friends) a new Dell with XP on it (yay!!!!!). I have Vista biz on my Lenova laptop (what I'm currently using till I get the new desktop) and Windows 7 (with the loathed word 2007) on my new HP netbook. It should arrive while I'm at the HPLFF...so my poor house/cat sitter will be lugging yet another BIG HEAVY OBJECT home for me from my po box.
So I feel functional although not totally without my contacts and emails all sorted nicely into folders by project and other subjects.
