Server does not startup into Windows

Important data is on the drive.

What do you do?

Call and request for a recovery of data.

If there is no backup of data, the best thing to do is stop using the server or workstation and give Ed Siemion a call at (206) 235-7911. 

Do not attempt to reinstall Windows and certainly do not format the hard disk drive.

If clicking noises are heard from the hard drive at startup and when booting into Windows---be absolutely certain you have a current backup of data and get a new hard drive!

Condition of Hard Drive and Costs to Consider

If hard drive is not corrupted AND backup is available, cost of recovery is typically near $300 and it is likely that 100% of the data will be recovered.

If hard drive is corrupted, physically functions yet no backup is available, cost of data recovery is at least $750 where some data may be unrecoverable.

If hard drive will not power on and/or will not communicate with computer at startup, cost of data recovery can exceed $2,000 where some data will likely be unrecoverable and must be sent to laboratory having equipment for properly "cracking" hard disk drives.

If drive has been soaked in corrosive liquid, smashed, super heated or super frozen or any force which physically alters the internal metallic disk--chances for data recovery is low. 

If data is to be recovered from a failed backup tape or failed server, recovery cost will be even higher in particular for servers of which depend on a Redundant Array of Independent Disks (RAID).

Backup your data!!!!!!!!
