Is hard to say which description of computer failure is worse crashed or fried. Fried is probably the worst case scenario, as it implies that your entire computer has suffered physical damage in the form of an overheat and meltdown. Most people intermix the terms fried or crashed when referring to data loss and other comparable problems. It is important to note that a meltdown on modern computers is extraordinarily rare occurring in only one out of every 300 cases. In all of the other 299 situations the fault lies not in hardware but in the software used to control your computer’s hard drive. These situations are known as logic crashes.

When your computer has suffered such a crash data recovery is the first step to restore your computer to full original operating condition. The reason that this must be the first is because you will need to reload the Windows operating system in order to reactivate your computer. Reloading Windows basically erases all of the prior information stored on your hard drive. So we must rescue our stored files before we reload the Windows operating system. FileFinder is the perfect tool for doing this as it will allow you to start up your crashed computer and access all of the files on your hard drive even if Windows has failed and your hard drive has failed.
