How about installing a second boot drive and try accessing infected drive as
a slave? Or at least maybe you can run some utilities against it. I recall
an old program called lost and found.

Guys, 

I managed to nuke myself with an infected (OPASERV) bootable floppy in spite
of A-V protection (long story). This virus has modified my partition
information and possibly overwrote the first 8GB. System does not boot but I
can get to BIOS.

Has anyone used a recovery utility that won't create additional damage if it
doesn't work? Recommend a data recovery service perhaps?
