My Windows XP Home Edition was crashed. I tried to boot
my computer with "safe" mode but without success.

I also tried to re-install Windows by CD but was notified
that it need to reformat my hard disk before re-
installation.

I do not have back-up to my disk.

I would appreciate if anyone could give me some hints on
how to recover a few folders from the disk before
reformatting.

Many thanks.
