Help! : Need to make a Bootable CD to access NTFS Partition!

[ahmedaf]

How do i go about making a bootable cd that can access a WINXP NTFS Partition ?

I corrupted some files and winxp wont boot, in safe mode or in last known good boot...so i need to access the c: drive which is NTFS because once i can access it i know what to do with it.

^ if that doesn't do it, search "boot" in the software forum for several bootable-CD threads, some with links.

try to find a program called NTFSDOS there are 2 versions....one that only reads NTFS partitions, another that will allow you to write to the NTFS partition....don't have any experience using it with XP, but it works for NT4 so it may be worth a try!

You could also use the XP disk to boot off from, then run the Recovery Console.

just slave it on another 2K/XP box

Yup. Works every time for me. Best way to do it too, unless your SAM is corrupted too.

Is there anyway to boot Knoppix with write access to an NTFS partition? I have only used it a couple times, but it only had read access for me.

Knoppix ntfs write support isn't ready for prime time. You have to enable it in the source code and then rebuild the kernel. But it's said that it's very likely to corrupt your drive.

Did you try any of the obvious places? Was the 0.22 seconds on google too much for you?
