ok, my friend seems to have a problem with the HDDs in his comp

the computer, physically has 2 HDD, he partitioned it so that each HDD has 2 drives, making total of 4 drives
both HDD, has windows XP Pro installed (legit)
one of the HDD suddely decides not to boot windows (could be damaged boot sector)
my friends then boot off the other HDD and it works fine
once he got into windows, he could see the comp can detect the other HDD, but he couldn't access it

so how can he fix it?

note: when he tried to boot off the "dead" HDD, he could't even make it to the Windows XP logo..

Has he tried chkdsk /f on the bad drive? Might show any boot sector errors/repair them.
