Recovering files from a hard drive?

Is there anyway to retrieve files from a hard drive that crashed? My wife's computer crashed and now won't go past the login on screen. About 2 years ago we purchased the computer from a friend who sold it as -is because the same thing happened to him. We purchased a new hard drive and he installed it for us. Everything was working fine until about a month ago, when the computer just would not boot correctly. We think the hard drive burned out, but we haven't taken it in yet.

We have a lot of family photos and stuff on her hard drive...any help would be very helpful and appreciated.
