this recently happened to me..forunately i had two hard disks and it was possible to swap them around, just meant installing windows on the 2nd hard disk, and then all me programmes but at least i didn't lose any data. although the original hard drive wouldn't boot it shows up fine as the new slave.

will be taking images of the drive frequently now, never bothered with any kind of back up before.

having said that was kinda nice to start from scratch again, old pc was full of junk..
