A family member's PC is giving her hassle - when she turns it on it says something along the lines of "Boot disk unmountable". A friend of mines reckons the partition is knackered and that I should connect it to another PC and use Norton Utilities to try and recover the data.

Is this the best course of action? What are my chances of recovering the data? Does the hard drive need replacing or is it a case of repair and carry on?

Sorry for all the questions but in all my years of dealing with PC problems, this is the first time I'll have had to do this.

Cheers.
