    NicolasD got a reaction from Pickles von Brine in Well there's your problem! - What's your weirdest tech solutions/issues you have encountered?   
    I had a user who was extremely frustrated that his computer would restart randomly multiple times a day... i spent 10 mins with him and saw that when he was moving his keyboard tray, it would happen.
    the problem was a USB iphone charger cable that was placed so that he could charge his phone while working, the sliding tray wore out the sleeving through and was shorting the wires. the computer shut down everytime it detected a short circuit on the USB and that was it... we removed the cable, told him to charge his phone on the desk instead and it never happened again!

    so i've used HDD raw copy tool from hddguru and, after the multiple hours it took to copy the disks, i got most of the success i wanted!
    we managed to get into the Windows XP machine interface and we got only one error message: Raid error
    as there was 2 disks, i would think that it would be Raid 1... would anyone know why it wouldn't have worked with the Raid?
     
    thanks for your help guys, at least we got new disks that aren't telling us that they are dieing now...
