| If your hard drive has gone m8 that would not stop you booting to floppy or CD. If you can get into the Bios settings, you can change the boot order. If it is set to Hard Disk first, thats probally why you can not boot to Floppy or CD. Might be worth booting to floppy even if your hard disc is down, as you may be able to get to some data depending on how your drive is formated. There is a resuce CD that Sysinternals do that will boot to Windows PE to allow you get the data off or repair. Quite a few options still left for you depending on how bad you want that data. Let me know if I can help anymore.
