Windows 7 is a lot better than XP, just my opinion, it does take a bit of getting used to but once you have got the knack of how it works its overall far superior to XP.

Linux is far better than any version of windows IMO and it's free. I'd prefer a Mac, a bit pricey though.

Hey MrX sorry to hear about your hard drive thats happened to me a few times I have learned to back everything up now.

BTW Looks like windows 8 is a while off yet mid to late 2012 is the release date.

Take it to a PC specialist, get the drive switches set to make it a slave drive and hook it up as an external drive and they may be able to download some, if not all, of your data. Should not cost much - unless the hard drive is cooked or the fingers are buggered and then it will not work.
