No, installing Windows won't erase the hard disk.

I was not installing Windows. My hard drive stopped functioning. I want to retrieve data.

Sorry, I was just comparing all those pictures of nukes going off with a Windows installation.

Contact the hard drive mfr. If it has stopped spinning then the motor is bad. The mfr can replace the motor.

If the motor spins but the solenoid is bad then the mfr can replace the solenoid.

If the electronics is bad they can replace the electronics.....BUT

You're going to have to pay through the nose.

If the mfr won't do it, go to http://www.ontrack.com
