Hi, this is my first time on TechIMO, been looking around and here seems a good place to ask for help- you people seem to know a bit without sounding condescending and superior, which I've noticed on other forums.

My problem is, I think either my processor or my motherboard failed today. Running Win2k I got a blue screen, with an "Unexpected_Kernel_Mode_Trap" error, my system rebooted before I had chance to note down the memory address error. After a bit of fault finding, I think that either the CPU or motherboard is faulty.
I currently run 2 SATA drives as RAID 0, comprising my boot drive. If I transfer the drives and controller to another machine, will I be able to salvage my data? The drives haven't failed, and I hope (but not entirely sure) the MBR will be housed on the array.
Any ideas? Any help would be gratefully received.

Thanks
