I've managed to get a Win 2000 disk up and running again.  It sounds
as though the OS is corrupted in this case?  There is a recovery
option on the Win 2000 disk if I recall correctly.

 Have you tried accessing the drive from an XP machine?  I'd try this
first to get the important stuff off it.  Otherwise, there is always
something like 'Lost and Found' (excellent program for recovery work).
