Default Re: XP - Crashed

I once had my disk go all wobbly on me (wobblwobbl-ker-tink), but with repeated startups into quick-booting, no-disk-use DOS and a few minutes worth of copying at a time before the disk destabilized and required a power down, I was able to copy it off.

Quite scary at the time; all the best of luck to you on the backups.
