My hero! worthy:

Boot disc failure...  ::)

Although it is difficult to communicate with a new Mum with a screaming baby so I haven't been able to talk through any diagnostics...  noooo:

Could be simple BIOS change or perhaps a virus has wiped the boot sector.

If it needs a new disc there are some important baby pictures that they haven't backed-up and would like to retrieve...

We'll obviously pay the going rate and any parts needed...
