No mate, basically it wont boot or anything. So ive got it in another PC as a slave drive.

I can access everything on it and copy it bar the stuff in my documents which is a security feature with XP as its the main account.

There is a way usin the PC its in now to re-write the settings so it matches this PC and i can access it but cant fookin remember
