Red face Hard disk down... HELP !!!!!

I have a Fujitsu Disk Model MPD3043AT 4.32 gb. It won't boot. I have tried it on two other PC's as both master and slave but it isn't recognised in the BIOS setup. Of course I have lots of word doc's that I don't really want to lose on this disk and it's not backed up. (I know serves me right....)

I believe the disk is spinning (I could feel the vibration when holding it when I turned the PC on). But I can't notice any sounds of the heads moving.

I know there are companies out there that can recover data from disks, but I have also seen the prices (about £400 to recover data from a 4gb disk.)

Does anyone have any other suggestions of any software I could try to read the disk or of any cheaper data recovery companies in the UK who may be able to help.

Thanks in anticipation...
