Thanks to the good folks on here I have managed to get everything I really wanted from my Fried Hard Disc I used a Free Data Recovery program from the same people as supply The Gimp photo mainipulation program. Excellent thing if anyone needs this facility.
So, now I need to know what to do to get the Computer to actually open the Hard Drive, which is in an IcyBox. XP sees the disc, but cannot access it.

Thanks to ethel there is great advice on this site

You have to remember to set the jumpers on the hard drive to 'master'. There should be a simple diagram on the hard disk to show how to do that.

If you're not sure how to do this, post the make and model and other AB'ers will be able to explain how to do that.
