Managed to run chkdsk from the conosle promt now, it has repaired the drive, but the registry is corrupt. No matter, the data on the drive has returned, thats the main thing. Still at a loss to what may have caused it though .. Virus or drive failure ?

Well well well, as a follow up, it WAS a Maxtor 30gb Drive on an Asus A7V133 Motherboard that mucked up. NTFS formatted as well. Glad I don't run them at home. I'll probably get flamed for this, but just take a look around the boards about the number and diversity of problems reported, look at the specs .. VIA chipset in almost every one. Nuff Said.
