i would hate to attempt a hard drive repair, was the adapter to make the
smaller laptop drive connect to the ide cable professionally made? try to
wipe out you bios and reset the settings its a long shot but sometimes it
works, the motor in the drive will spin as long as the power supply is
connected usually. if the drive is toast because of power into the data
lines and the m/b not bad feel lucky and go buy a new hd, if your data is
extremely important and your hd still being made, go buy the exact same
drive and change controller boards
