This might be a long shot but for the cost it may be worth a try.
Steve Gibson a security expert at GRC.com has a tool that might help. For more info go to

Subject: [MSUNAG] Hard Drive Restore on campus
Are there any hard drive restoration services on campus. The
down-and-dirty kind involving clean-rooms and actual dismantling of
hardware? I suspect not, heck of a delicate and technical service, but
I am about to recommend something to a user who forgot to do their
backup, and I'm afraid he's not going to like the costs involved. Any
suggestions, on-campus or good experiences elsewhere are welcome.
To be clear, this involves hardware that will not spin up.
I feel this has been asked before, but I searched the archive and failed
to find anything... sry =( Found 'Data Recovery Service' from 11/08 and
entertaining discussion on Freezing, Dropping and Hitting hard drive
with mallet, but no useful names or places of businesses still in
operation.
