Subject: HD in critical condition

After being down for a few days and having a fan replaced, my
computer booted up only to tell me that the hard drive was no
longer recognised.
After testing other possibilities, I confirmed it's the hard drive's
problem. It won't even spin up. It is getting power, though,
because a green light flashes on the logic board. If that's the
case, could the electrical path be dropping the +12V power, but not
the +5V, somewhere on the board?
Can anyone suggest what might be done?
Thanks.
