I am in partedMagic, but I can't see any of my stuff on there... I have file manager, system Profiler,Keyboard layout, Disk health, Monitor Settings, Network Manager, partition editor, there is a mount gtk? Desktop, 6 different ones.....Not sure I am in the right place, could you tell me where I start and where I got to get my stuff off the HDD??
I just got to thinking, did you mean for me to use the Vista or the windows 7 that is working?

Thanks
