IBM ThinkPad Error 174
Wednesday, May 09, 2007
We’re commonly asked “What is error 174?”
This basically means that your IBM ThinkPad laptop’s BIOS is unable to recognize the hard drive.
(Shameless plug: We do offer some levels of data recovery.)

Sorry, the above post wasn't very clear. Basically, you need to replace the hard drive.
We can sell you one if you need one, possibly w/ the original 600E image if you have Windows 98.. 919-468-3999.
Physically replacing the HD is easy in the 600E. There is one screw holding the hard drive door closed, on the bottom of the machine, towards the front...
