If you tried all the other stuff, then please put your XP CD in and reformat your drive and reinstall XP from scratch. If your current hard drive is still good, this will work fine. (Disconnect your external Maxtor until XP is on.)

Once XP is on, load on your Maxtor software. Once that is on, then restore your last backup. If you last did an incremental, their software should let you identify that and it will find the earlier backups needed to complete it.

You'll be back up to your last backup's status within 4 - 6 hours.
