before formating, try a linux live cd (ubuntu for example) and plug your harddrive to see if it is recognized. Therefore, you could perhaps save the files on it on your internal HD

I never did anything about this, but I could use the space. I'm going to look for that HD and try and plug it in. Maybe all the computer needed was time.
