That's a bit difficult to say--the old computer is now landfill at the 
local tip!

The HD is an old 13.5 Gb WD, probably the original HD.

The old computer just suddenly refused to boot--no lights, nothing. A 
7-year-old Compaq, it wasn't worth fixing.

I suspect it was the power supply, or the switch. Since it's not being 
recognised in XP, I can't drag any data off it with any of my data-rescue 
software.

Strange that Device Manager can see it and reports it as functional, but 
it's not visible at all in Disk Management.
