HELP!! hard-disk failure

Hello, IBM-fans,

I have a problem with my PC/AT Hard disk. I accidentally unplugged
my computer while it was running, although the 'usage' light of the
hard disk was not on. Since that time the computer refuses to boot
from the hard disk and also the FDISK program aborts witha fixed
disk error message.
Since I haven't had my system for very long and the manuals don't
help me in that kind of problem, I'd like to ask if anybody has had
such a problem before and what can be done.
Any help is greatly appreciated !!!

		Thanks
		Ralph Kling
