We can usually recover data from failing or crashed systems.  Franktronics utilizes numerous tools and techniques to recover your data including specialize software and hardware.

If the hard drive is physically damaged (such as a bad head crash), then data recovery may not be possible.

If your computer is crashing, or the hard drive is making strange noises, do not turn it on.
Each time the computer is turned on, it may make the situation worse.
Bring the computer in to us as soon as possible.

Another situation we’ve seen several times recently is caused by an “encryption” virus.  These viruses encrypt the data on your drive.  While we are able to read and recover these files, the data is encrypted, making it useless.
