Here's a picture of the disk management screen. Thanks for your help.
It appears I'm going to lose all my data, correct?

Boggin:
Not necessarily.

I wrongly assumed that as you were prompted to initialize it, it was dead.

Reading the following article it would seem that you may be able to recover the HDD.

The EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard isn't a free program but it does have an initial trial version.

If this was mine, I'd probably take it into a reputable computer repair shop.
