Sorry if this is not the right place to post this but...
So my brother came back from uni the other day and told me that his computer was dead and asked me to have a look at it for him. It seems that it won't boot and just keeps restarting. I set it up as a slave drive in my own PC, booted into Windows XP (on my PC) and could open it fine from there and access the files on it. Am I right in thinking that this is then a problem with Windows XP and perhaps it's been corrupted? What's the best way to repair it? And can I do it whilst it's still set up as a slave drive?
Thanks.
