Most likely the hard drive has died, but ...

Look at the hard drive to see who the manufacturer is, then go to their web site and download their diagnostic utility. It's available as a diskette image or bootable CD iso image. Create either then boot it and run it against the hard drive, see if it reports and error.

You don't burn the iso file itself to CD., you create a CD from the iso file using your CD burning software. There is a good freeware burner called DeepBurner which will do this. Another called ISO Recorder is also very easy to use.
