ok so windows crashed, but now i need to get a shitton of pictures documents and maybe some mp3s off of the hard drive. i know the files are intact because i see them in DOS.
the problem is its a laptop with no floppy drive.. i tried a live ubuntu linux cd, but it wouldnt reconize the NTFS drive.
anyone know a trick to getting files off a hard drive that windows wont boot into on a laptop?
for the record, safe mode in all forms is not working, nor is the repair function on the xp install cd. windows is nuked, i just need the files.
and also, this isant my computer, im doing this for a freind, so i know all about backing up data to begin with.
thanks to all who can help!! =)
