Anthony gave you good advice. I'll expand. Buy a new drive and install windows XP. Then re-jumper your old drive as a "slave" and temporarily install it. It should show up as "D:". Browse it and copy what you can access to your new drive. Power down again, and toss the drive in the trash can... I've done this a couple of times as windows drives have failed on my wife's home machine. Typically you see errors. Then more errors. Then total loss. Try to salvage what you can before the drive goes belly-up permanently.
