Anyway, to cut a long story short, I've tried reconnecting this Hard Drive and no power goes to it. I have so many important files on there including hundreds of mp3s, stuff that I've bought off online mp3 stores which I would have to purchase again, not to mention personal files and pictures.

Its a Maxtor 250gb IDE Hard Drive.

Do you guys know of any good companies who would be able to recover the data for me and any idea how much it would cost?

Thanks.

Simon
Know anyone who is any good with electronics? Get them to check near the molex connector for open circuit surface mount fuses, it could be something as simple as that
