Yet, I had another computer long ago that I couldn't turn on, and my
friend was able to do so.  My friend builds computers, and has no idea
of how to retrieve this, but as before, I am thankful for the help and
information on this newsgroup.

OK, I just called them, and they said they use 3 Ghost programs, and
the drive was in "too bad a shape".  Could be problem with the
MBR....

On another note, as I was originally writing this, my computer turned
off by itself (then reloaded).  A couple of times (as well) I had a
CMOS error, and had to put the correct date in.

Ghost will not be able to access a crashed drive. It needs a working
partition / drive for it to be successful. Look across the Internet
and you should be able to find several recovery tools.
