Well, that doesn't sound good.
Do you have a computer repair shop you can take the system to? The very least if you can take the drive out yourself and take that in to see if they can clone it to a newer sata drive? Or they can hopefully copy off the data to a newer ata drive and then you may have to get a brand new complete system. If a place can save your data much of your programs may still work on win7 or win10. You can run old stuff sometimes, but you can't run new programs on very old OS.

Is this the only sys you have? Is it a rush? I'm heading out of town today, but if you list your computer brand, and specs by this afternoon, I can check around this weekend for you. I need the MB model and chipset-(the version of the cpu software).
Look under Start> (on your taskbar) Windows> SystemsTools> select System Information and you should find most everything there under Hardware Devices.
