Hi everyone!, ¡Pura Vida!...
If you want to recover your data from your hard drive (you may have many bad sectors, don't think it's the board, but as no tear), you can use a distro of GNU / Linux, using Ubuntu (live cd, not installed only works on the ram), it is easy to use, with Ubuntu you can copy all your data from your hard drive to an external hard drive or USB and not have to pay anyone to do so, I give you the link:
http://www.ubuntu.com/
I hope I have been helpful ;)

If you can, try to boot off of a CD or DVD like your Windows install disk. If it boots and remains stable, that hard drive is probably hosed. Your shop may be able to recover without losing your files, but I won't bet on it.

The other computer has some weird issue; it turns off and restarts whenever it wants to, and once you actually turn it off by selecting "Shut down", it restarts itself. But now it shuts off and reboots before I can even access anything on the desktop. Will be calling the company tomorrow for advice (it's under warranty). Hopefully I can get it fixed quickly and easily.
