If data retrieval is your only problem, tell him to rest easy. Unless the hard drive took a crap, it is not a problem at all. If the hard drive did die the machine would sitll turn on, just not get very far. So that is not the problem here. Let me know if I can help.

I do technology consulting and servicing . . . but honestly if any major hardware failed on the laptop (being that its 5 years old) it might be cheaper to replace the thing entirely than it would be to replace the components.
However, there is a couple of things you can troubleshoot at home first before I would take it to get looked at. I'm not sure how technologically inclined you are so you may have done it already, but play with the power, battery, etc . . . make sure its not something stupid first.
Feel free to e-mail me and I'll see if I can help further as my PM box is currently having issues, shawn@ILGTG.com
