| Sorry to read about the troubles with your TC1000. This sounds like a hardware issue that will require you to do some troubleshooting.
Start by determining if the hard drive is being recognized by the system. Check the POST and the BIOS for information. Try to boot from an alternative device and then see if you can then read files from it. For example, boot from the CD and then see if you can pull off the files. Then reformat the drive by reinstalling the OS. |
