HTML and JavaScript and basicially everything, passwords, Deamweaver CS4, Flash, Fireworks, and Adobe Pro Extended. About two weeks ago I could hear the fans speed up and slow down in the power supply. Seem even with most programs off to conserve the CPU I noticed I always was pegging out at 100 percent. Last week the curser went crazy like my first wife, so I decided to change the power supply with an equal. As soon as I pressed the on switch I heard a pop and the power supply and fans ran but not the hard drive, I need to recover the data on the drive even if I need to purchase the same brand and remove the PC and retrieve. My question is there something of better quality that I can put the data on and not need to worry about losing everything? Does anyone here have any good ideas of how I can resolve this? Hitachi Deskstar Hard Drive P7K500 Quality or a Big Mistake? I have photos of the burned board on bottom but am not allowed to post URL here from Flickr.

Jason look down there at knight0334 already dogging the drive, no I don't remember them days and I wish I had known! That is what I really wanted to do but I have so much valuable information on that drive and they will not sell the PC Board on back of the drive without the complete hard drive. I had the full works Adobe CS4 package on there and about 20 websites that I was updating. The entire html needs either to be lost or recovered. One forum I visited did not have much to say good about that brand of hard drive but really I think my power supply was acting strange for three or four days before this I could hear fans speeding wildly and slowing down. Finally, the curser went crazy, I put an equal power supply in pressed the switch and a chip on the board popped, and two pins on the 15-pin side middle changed color. If everyone would stop screwing with websites html, someone would have been able to see what I was pointing out. I ordered a new one yesterday from New Egg about $57.00 and a new power supply.
