To explain:

Files were backed up to DVD but the DVD is unreadable and
the files were delted off of the Hard Drive...

you have to tell us what happened. do you need to restore
files from a drive failure or did you just accidently
deleted a few files on your hdd?

Easy Recovery Pro is a good one. I used it a while back on
a screwed up disk.

It wasn't me mate. Someone just e-mailed me asking if I knew
of a program and I don't. I get the feeling it was a few
weeks ago they deleted the files. I don't think they've
defragged since then. I'll try and ring them to get more
details.

If your computer doesnt detect a harddrive on boot, does
that mean its fried? I don't care so much about using that
harddrive again, but I have a bunch of files that I would
like off it it.

Thanks!

pata or sata.... check out the cable.... is it thin or a
pretty wide flat cable?

does the drive spin up? eg is the power cable connected
properly? (and all other cables properly connected).....

It's an IDE cable, it's flat, I'm sorry dude I have the
feeling I'm not looking at the right thing hehehe.

I'm going to plug it in right now, brb

Oh! When I have it plugged in with my current drive, both
are not detected. I have the jumpers set right and
everything. That's kind of strange, why would it effect my
other HD right ...

files.

it def. sounds like something is weird with your jumper
settings. have you set the old drive as "slave" and plugged
it into the same cable? or are you running two cables and
each drive as "masters"?

One cable with 2 outlets : )
