I knew of Knoppix, but haven't tried it. This is a *GREAT* tip, I think.
Thanks.

Hi, you could also give a try to Knoppix Linux.
It is a live CD (i.e. it boots up a complete operating system without
touching your hard drive), and can also read Windows partitions. I
managed to read hard disks with it that seemed to be completely wasted
under Windows.

Good luck, and Best Regards
