This will sound like urban legend - but I have heard of it working with a co-worker's drive. Take the drive, place it in a zip-lock bag (I've heard you should also put in one of those silica bags that absorb moisture). Place that in the freezer for several hours. Take it out, and immediately hook it up to the system and boot it. If that doesn't work, I would recommend looking for a data recovery company. One I've not used, but have heard good things about, is OnTrack - http://www.ontrack.com/
HTH,
