Both PC's in the house are WinXP...so I can recover the data? Phew! I thought all my stuff was gone...thank you so much! I really appreciate this, this has lifted my mood d little! I was so depressed - fourth time its happened. I really need a new PC but I'm skint. Once again, thank you for the help! Oh, any other advice is very welcome, like how to stop this happening again, so this thread ain't finished. I mean, what causes corruptions like that? One minute my PC's working fine, the next minute it rebooted and ruined windows. What gives?

EDIT: Oh, and what would the BIOS autodetect do?
EDIT2: And could this have been a virus?
