OK I am afraid that was a last ditch hope to try and get the system reserved partition up and running

I am afraid all the is left is to back up your data and re-install..  Check this out http://www.macrium.com/reflectfree.aspx

This is the imaging software I use and from a dead system to up and running takes no more than 15 minutes...  Bu, you must have an image first

Ok, thanks anyway for all your efforts. FWIW, I noticed you can copy files to the USB drive from the notepad 'explorer' so I can probably save most of the data I need to (although it'll take a while!) that way - or would reflect be quicker?

No reflect can only initially be used when you have a working system if you go here https://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=53253.0
Start at If you cannot  Boot the computer

That will show you how to an xp type desktop to back up your data

Hi essexboy
I made the disk with OTLPEN and booted with it... it got as far as XP start screen, and then a BSOD (codes 0x0000007B (0XF78DA528, 0XC0000034, 0X00000000, 0X00000000)...

wtf?? :-\

I think you have a hardware problem as that programme runs from CD/USB

Hi

I ran chkdsk /r again and no problems detected...

 am I basically looking at rescuing data via the notepad method? And then a new HD?

It looks that way I am afraid.  But first try a windows re-install
