Data Recovery
Are you unable to run some of your programs?
Are you unable to start Windows?
Are some of your folders empty that should be full of files?
Are you unable to access files on a CD, DVD, floppy disk, flashcard, or memory
stick.
If you answered yes to any of these questions, some your data is probably
missing or corrupt.
A data loss situation is usually characterized by the sudden inability to access
data involving a previously functioning computer system. This may be caused by a
virus that deleted data or reformatted partitions.
If you receive the following error message “Missing Operating System”, it
usually indicates that a virus has infected your master boot record or partition
table. In some cases it may be caused by a bad CMOS battery that defaulted your
BIOS setting.
In some cases, data loss is due to a bad CD, DVD, floppy, flashcard, memory
stick, or a failing hard drive. Most hard drives will emit a light mechanical
hum that a user may notice under normal operation. An indication of impending
failure is when the normal sound changes to louder ticking or grinding noises.
This symptom may precede actual data access problems as the hard drive utilizes
spare sectors.
Other forms of data loss include accidental deletion of data, accidental
reformatting of partitions, and sabotage.
Reboot has the tools and knowledge to recover your data even if
the hard drive's partition table, boot record, FAT/MTF, or root directory is
lost or damaged.
Reboot can restore all
file types that was lost due to a virus attack, a power failure that caused a
system crash, files that were lost due to a software failure, files that were
accidentally deleted, or if the drive was formatted.

Tips And Suggestions
Data Recovery |
|
Data Loss Prevention
Avoid moving or bumping your
computer, especially when it is powered on, this will
prevent hard drive crashes.
Protect your computer against power surges with a power
surge protector or better yet, with an uninterruptible
power supply.
Back up important data regularly. If your hard drive
fails, you can restore your data to a new hard drive.
Turn off your computer when not in use. Besides the risk
of power surges, an earthquake can shake you computer that
might cause a hard drive crash.
Avoid operating your computer in extreme temperatures or
high humidity.
Install anti-virus software on your computer. This will
help protect your computer from viruses that might delete
your data.
Install firewall software to block worms that might try to
delete your data.
Data Recovery
If your computer will not power up, reseat the power
cable going to the hard drive.
If your computer will not power up, reseat both ends of
the data cable.
If your computer will not power up, try plugging the data
cable into the secondary controller.
If you receive the following error message “Missing
Operating System”, check your floppy drive or CD/DVD
drive, your computer may be trying to boot from these
drives rather than your hard drive.
If you hear your hard drive making very unusual noises,
turn off the computer immediately. The noise is probably
due to a hard drive crash.
Do not run Scandisk to fix data loss situations, as this
may cause some of the sectors to be non-recoverable.
Do not copy or move any files to the hard drive containing
your lost data. This may overwrite the lost data.
