Calling all computer wizards (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif)

My good buddy called me today for some computer assistance. Usually I can answer the call, but this one is out of my league.

He attempted to download and install Service Pack 2, (IMG:style_emoticons/default/barf.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) when it was "done" it gave him an error message that it didn't install properly, so he should do it again. System locks, so he tries to reboot, and it won't boot. He decided to use the system restore disk and cut his loses, but he gets a message saying the computer can't locate his hard drive.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif)
