Life is like a clogged toilet. It's full of crap until you do something about it.

Have you tried booting a live linux distro and mounting the drive? Does fdisk see it?
I'm going to be honest and admit I have no idea what any of that is hahaha! This is just a bit over my head, I think I'm just going to send this thing back. Thanks for the help though.
1: Don't send the drive back.
2: Just take all the data from the old hard disk, and put it on the new one. My idea. I have no idea how one would do that, however.
3: Linux Distro=Ubuntu, Mint, Fedora, etc. Much better than windows, in my opinion. They are all free downloads, and can be booted directly from a CD or USB drive without installing anything from the Hard Drive.
