As long as your drive turns on and is still spinning you can rescue your data. Simply open up your PC and disconnect the drive itself and install it in another PC. Sometimes only the boot sector is mbaya. This will not help in the case of a virus. If you do have a virus, re install windows and when prompted choose to partition your hard drive. This will rid almost any virus while preserving your original windows installation and all files that you had.
