How long do you have to wait after taking it from the freezer before reinstalling it?

Thanks

  Yes Mark;
  I have used this trick many times.
  just put the hdrive in an antistatic bag and place in the freezer
  for a couple of hours or more.
  Doesn't always work, but worth a try:-)
     Hooking the drive up as a slave on another system is the
  best way to go. If the drive is formated NTFS you will need a system
  with XP or Win2K to read it.
