Dear Vintage Macs: Sorry for the double post, but my computer crashed.
Dear Vintage Macs: Recently a friend's Mac II drive refused to mount. The classic flashing question mark icon appeared on the screen and wouldn't go away. I know that the drive is still working because I can hear its internal mechanism whirring away. I accessed an old copy of Norton Utilities 2.0 to see if I could do some repairs on this disk so that I could at least retrieve the data on this drive. Unfortunately, Norton's couldn't do anything. Today, I took the drive to the computer store where I work and used the facilities in our service department to work on this drive. I tried running Disk Warrior, but it could see the drive at all. I used Apple System Profiler to see if it could see the drive, but this proved to be a dead end. Are there any other options that I can pursue to get the data off this old drive?
