Tom,
Afraid I can't offer a solution, but maybe some comfort.
Recently my hard disk crashed, as a result of a corrupted boot sector - so I
was told.
A friend removed the old disk and installed a new one. Then put the old one
in a "caddy" - not a tea caddy, but a box that turned it in to a external USB
hard drive.
Then another friend, more gifted in software issues, was able to extract the
old in box, sent box etc, plus my old address book, and my IE favourites.
Don't know how he did it, all a bit smoke in mirrors to me, but this proves
it can be done.
Hope you have success.
Ken
