Hi Guys - thanks for help - I'm greatful. I managed to bypass the password thing but it still didn't help. In the end I installed XP onto another drive and used a utility to copy my data accross. Just got a coupla days installing, tweaking and wondering where the hell I put those utilities I...

I appreciate your concerns Spirit - but no it's not nicked - it's mine. I can actually read all the data from another drive using a utility and have restored it to another drive. The only bummer is I can't get the os to unfrazzle so it looks like I'm going to have to re-install windows and all...
