I downloaded Hirens. It has some useful stuff on it.
It has the Partition Find and Mount mentioned by Simon. I liked PF&M so much, I went and bought it. It's much faster when it's a registered copy!
I think I've recovered everything - except all my emails. However, there is a copy of my Outlook PST file on my old 250Mb boot drive which, while it boots into Windows doesn't allow me to access anything - the mouse doesn't work - but I can see everything using the programs on Hirens.
I don't want to corrupt anything on that drive but I need to copy everything off it.
Ideally, what I'd like is an image file so I can do a Windows repair or reinstall on the 250Mb drive then restore from the image without overwriting Windows.
I have a new 1Tb external drive sitting here waiting to be used.
Can one copy a 250Mb drive image onto a larger drive and then use that image to restore everything including all the programs and registry?

Well that solves the unread email problem.:D
I don't think disk size is an issue with disk images.
