True Booth. Something I do here at work (believe it or not, not file server...) is order a 2nd hard drive with every PC we get. And all "data" is stored on that hard drive. Windows gets corrupted on C: and that drive gets hosed, still have their data. It's a "stop gap" procedure until we can get the OK ($) for a filer server...

Last year I had a similar problem. I bought a new hard drive and added it to the machine and installed XP on the new drive. The files on the old drive then became accessible, and I lost nothing but gained a lot of new empty disk space. New hard drives are under a $100 now, so it is cheaper than a couple of hours of repair time in the shop. Booth
