HP W7 laptop won't boot to desktop

[Cobalt006]

Yes, You can try what is listed in the website. If you feel at ease doing this. Or you can have a computer shop. Try and recover the data. The best route would be the computer shop. More expensive though. There are free softwares out there you can try. In all it depends on how bad the hard drive is.

Ok, but I thought recuva only could be used once you're at the desktop? On that laptop it was next to impossible to do such. Thanks thou
