Hi Martin: I have a file, about 5 MB zipped, that expands into a 5 floppy disk boot set, from Microsoft. If you can expand the zip, run the resultant executable, it will prompt for disks. When completed, boot from the first disk and you can reach set of tools that will repair your disk. I have brought back some pretty munched XP drives using this product. If you wish I can send it to you off-line.

System started behaving badly and now it will not boot at all. I need ONE docuemnt off the hard drive. I get as far as the Win XP Pro screen then it seems to hand or just simply reboot. ANyone know how can simply boot to a dos prompt. I know this can be done as I have done it before but cant rememebr how.
