JOINING THE SA FORUMS WILL REMOVE THIS BIG AD, THE ANNOYING UNDERLINED ADS, AND STUPID INTERSTITIAL ADS!!!

You can: log in, read the tech support FAQ, or request your lost password. This dumb message (and those ads) will appear on every screen until you register! Get rid of this crap by registering your own SA Forums Account and joining roughly 150,000 Goons, for the one-time price of $9.95! We charge money because it costs us money per month for bills, and since we don't believe in showing ads to our users, we try to make the money back through forum registrations.

Your over thinking this. Just take it to a local repair shop and stop loving with it. The more you gently caress with it, the more likely your going to break it more.

Have them pull the drive, copy the data off, reinstall Windows fresh and copy data back.

At the very least they can verify if the drive is encrypted or not, maybe even do the password recovery if they know their poo poo.
