Hey all,
Im looking at a friends Computer. Whenever you boot it gets stuck right at the beginning, you dont even get to the windows logo. And when booting into a livecd knoppix or helix i get to Documents and settings\~ that is the name of his user and i cant access pretty much anything in this folder. i can list it but that is it cant copy or enter any of the folders. I get Input/output error.

Any advice to recover this system or the data on his syste. Thanks
