Egads. That's awful. And Gates wonders why so many XP users are protesting?
I agree with ultimabaka. Mostly, those places are a rip off. A network cable might work, or you could try pulling the HD and connecting it to another computer to pull off the data. That's likely all a pc repair place would do anyway. I'm so sorry. I do hope you can get everything back.
When you do get it put back together, I'd recommend disabling the sleep function. It is a PIA in the best of times and with that bug...well, I'd say it is useless.
