OH MY! It's the Blue Screen Of Death (BSOD). Actually an ordinary event for many overclockers.
Try reviving your PC first. Reset CMOS through the jumper or by removing CMOS battery for 30 seconds or more. Be sure PC is unplugged. Then power ON PC and press F1 or Del to enter BIOS. Load fail safe defaults, save and exit. You should be back in business.

yes, you need to either set that drive up in an external hdd enclosure or make it a secondary hdd on another pc... aslong as the drive is good you can recover the data off it.
i would suggest downloading spinrite v6.0 and burning that to a cd then running the complete test on the hdd first, it will fix most errors on the drive, i have had good luck with this program (best find this using torrents to avoid paying)

this may work, it will allow you to retrieve files independent of your operating system. I use it at work all the time
