Hi,

Sorry to hear of your difficulty. Usually in your kind of situation data can easily be recovered using any Windows data recovery software. But my personal suggestion to you is to first try to run a demo version first and if you see directory list of your lost data then only proceed with the purchase.

Sometimes when OS fail to install then file System of your hard drive can go corrupt which can result to partition not found error.

Hi.
Check if the power supply its working use a multimeter. If it is check all the wires. If you see there's no problem with them maybe the mother board got broken. You can replace it, it's such an easy job.

I attempted to perform a system restore with the customer. The system restore was not turned on. The call was dropped in the middle. I recommend doing a system repair. Insert the windows operating system disk. Restart the computer. Press any key to boot from cdrom, let it load the settings. Click enter to install operating system, and the press r to repair afterwards. That should fix your problem.

To change font size, press Ctrl and scroll your mouse wheel up and down. It works if you are using Chrome.

Yuo should look for a aftermaker fan with the same voltage and same motherboard connector, and of course, the same size, but also you should check if there's no cables or anything else in contact with the spinning parts of your actual fan.

Push and hold enter key, or some-times there is a wake up key located on the top right hand side of your keyboard.
Move the mouse and click!
