  1. Heard a strange sound coming from my computer, ran into my bedroom to get an external hard drive to try to salvage what I could, and plugged it in.  It was too late.  My computer was dead.  Won't even turn on.  Thankfully, I bought a three-year warranty.  It doesn't expire for almost 3 weeks.  I can't believe it!  Usually my things break after the warranty expires.

      what kind of computer?  laptop?  desktop?
       

      If you have another desktop computer you can just try plugging it in a sata cable slot internally and see if you can read it and get enough power to it.   If it is a laptop drive you might beable to get enough juice on it with a 3.0 blue USB slot.   secondary drive with a sata slot is better though.

      "Hard Disk Sentinel"  or Crystaldiskinfo  can test the drive to see if its still good.  Haddisk sentinel has a short self test you can run aswell.

      I'd go thru some more steps you can do.... but if you have a warranty to take advantage ofthen i guess use it.  let them figure it out.

      My computer came back on.  Probably because I was turning the tower sideways and upside down trying to find the model number for my protection plan.  It's running rough and loud, so I'm going to have to get it fixed before my warranty expires on October 10th.

       

      I was able to transfer all my files onto my external hard drive and write down all the bookmarks I saved and everything I installed on my computer.:)  Hope it doesn't go out again before the weekend is over.  It's going to be too hot outside and inside to do anything.  It's 88 degrees in my house right now.  It's even hotter outside.  It's going to be like this for the next few days.
