HD error.

Here's the problem; went and restarted my laptop, when it came back on, BSOD. Tried all modes. Thuoght of fixing windows, but as many may know, when buying a laptop, you don't get an XP cd (or at least I didn't). Anyways, took out the HD from the laptop, and decided I'd connect it to the Desktop and take a look it (check it for virus, spyware, etc.). Went to open the drive, and it's been corrupted. Can't even open it. (The HD is still good, as to the fact that I have another partition with 2 folders on it, and they are still readable.) So it's just the partition that has XP on it. How do I fix it? or at least get the files that I need off of it? I've heard it's possible, but not sure how.
Thx
