hey everyone, I have a maxtor 60 gig hard drive in my other tower and its making a clicking sound when I turn it on. I believe the cause of this is a bad head. but if it is a bad head is there any possible way to fix it? It doesnt show any space on the hard drive at all but is able to recognize it in the bios. all Input will be greatly appriciated

Nah, if the drive's physically damaged, you're basically screwed. You'll need to get it replaced.

Check your warranty card.
