I know several of you are better with hardware than I am. I have an old drive (40g) that CMOS won't recognize.
Every "recover" program I have requires the disk be discovered by cmos.
any suggestions?

Does the drive need to be recovered? I'd plug it into one of those ATA or SATA (whichever is applicable) to USB drive adapters and see where I could go from there.

tried that first. UBUNTU determines its a drive that can't be mounted, windows never notices "new hardware"
its noisy but never makes that " its dead jim" clicking..
