Hey, thanks for your replies! The guy I took it too when it stopped working said that the hard drive was dead but could still possibly have all the data recovered by it being sent away.

Hi guys, I have an old Acer desktop computer that died a few years ago now. When it did pack in, I got it looked at and the bloke said that the only way to get all my old photos, music, films etc back was to have it sent away where someone will retrieve everything in a dust free environment but would cost a few hundred quid so I didn't bother and just stuck it at the bottom of my wardrobe. My question is, even though it's been inactive for about 6 years now, would I still be able to get all my old stuff back? Many thanks, Jon.
