Thanks!
About a minute after I posted this, my laptop BSODed and I don't have the XP disk to get to the recovery console. Nor does my wife's laptop have the means for making the cd needed using the startup disk from t'internet. Not happy.

Bad to worse.
Sorted out the CD, now it can't start the recovery console as it doesn't like the drivers. FFS.
