    Hey

    Can you pull the drive and run it as a spare on a USB adapter so you can atleast get your data off it?

    So, are you getting into windows? I assume so if you can see 12 processes running. It seems weird the HDD wouldn't show if its booting windows?? I'm assuming you only have 1 HDD and 1 partition.

    I would check the HDD for errors, if you can... Go to My Computer> Right click C:(if it shows up)> Properties> Tools > Error checking, click *check now*

    Kind of hard to say what could have caused it or how to help fix without more details.
