Dismantle SBS domain after server died

Hi, can I remove computers from a domain if the server has died?
I have a server with a dead motherboard (power supply toasted it) and I'd
like to dismantle the SBS domain and just move back to WinXP shared folders
(workgroup). We were planning to do this in a few weeks anyway, but now that
the SBS is dead, it is more expedient. I have a few questions, though.
(I posted the following earlier but it's not showing up.)
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
If the server is dead, will I be able to disjoin the PCs from the network?
What will happen with the redirected folders (my documents, desktop) when
the computer is disjoined and there is no server?
Will I be able to just put the (ex) server's shared drives into another
machine that was on the network and get everyone's files back? Will there be
permission issues?
What do I do about permissions after all machines have been disjoined?
Is there a path for migrating from exchange ost to outlook pst? (thence
we'll move to imap email)
Is there a way to get WSS docs out of the WSS backups without a server?
TIA
.
