Won't your Knoppix DVD give you full access to the system partition?

Well, it can read NTFS. Supposedly it can write to NTFS, but I'm not
sure it it's safe. Also, what form is the registry in? Is it a single
file? Do I need a registry editor? I don't think Knoppix has one on
board.

I'm trying to get my Windows partition back up, not simply access it.


Create a Bart PE boot CD (www.bootdisk.com). Since it is built
on WinXP, it can easily and safely read/write NTFS partitions.
AFAIR, it also includes regedit.exe. It also includes drivers for
a number of NICs.

The registry consists of several files. The system-related files
are kept in %SystemRoot%\system32\config, the user-related
files in %UserProfile%.
