My DVD burner wasn't working properly for a while, after many tries to clean it, I decided just to recover the data I had from the HDD directly.

I took it out, hooked to my PC and burned what i needed.

Sadly, when I returned the HDD to the DVR it refuses to load.
it stays stuck on "hello" and won't load anything....

any thoughts??

(I only deleted the automted "my documents" which was empty, and created by the PC).
