Not quite correct, though you need to know how to do this. It would be pointless using a LiveCD to recover things from the harddrive if you could not actually mount it in the first place. For now do only this one thing for me:
With the LiveCD up and running, open the File Manager ( "Start" - " Quick Browser " - " Root " - " mnt" - " win_c2 " ) and see if you recognize any folders within that. ( 'win_c2' is what is on my system so look for something similar on your LiveCD Action list.) Please report back here whether or not you were able to see anything on the hard drive and if so were you able to open and view the contents of any safe file you recognized there?
I'll give it a go on Friday, as I have quite a bit to do before then and dont feel confident to attempt it without being absolutely clear-headed. I'm sure you can understand. - Linz
