As DW says, it's probably corrupt due to a failing disk. SystemRescueCD is a good Linux boot disk which can read NTFS and save data to an external drive.
Backup first - if he can - then worry about trying to recover, but you'll need an XP home CD - I tried recovering Home with a Pro CD and it don't work
