well after careful extraction i managed to get my laptop hard drive out of the computer, and put it into a housing case. I've connected it now to my sisters computer, and its the same whirring noise that happened on mine, so its no doubt in my mind that its the hard drive gone caput.
Unfortunately doesnt seem i can access my info on this drive on my sisters comp.
Any suggestions? Ive tried to use scandisk, but it failed.
