Hello there ...
Is it NTFS already?
If you just want to transfer the files to another pc and give it a try to reinstall just get another PC with Windows NT or Windows 2000 or Windows XP and make this disk slave and copy the old disk over the newcomputer, just transfer the data
On the other hand there is always a way around and fix the problem without having to re-install the whole thing.
Blue Screen always gives a little bit of details of the problem that cause the problem. Write down the error and send it to me, maybe I can help
Good luck,
@lberto

Hello Friend, U can't get out from this blue screen problem in a easy way. If you have made your harddisk partition with NTFS file system. then there are two ways. Attach your HDD with other LAPTOP (attach your HDD with external Casing) remember that the other LAPTOP having NT OS. So it be able to detect your NTFS Partitions and then you can copy your required files.
the second way is to install again the NT OS in othe directory. This procedure is just to copy or restore your data file. it will not restore your OS.
Good Luck, bye

Hello
If your Laptop computer's Hard disk is formatted with FAT file system, Then you can try booting from a DOS Bootable disk and then go to c drive and then try running Scandisk and NDD disk maintanance softwares and try to fix the disk errorsand then reboot from laptop's harddisk
If the laptop's Hard disk is formatted with NTFS
file system Then You should try to connect another
Harddisk with Operating systems NT 2000 XP and
Boot from that hard disk and make your laptop's
harddiskas slave and try copying all your files
from laptop computer. if it is not possible
you can try booting from a floppy with dos and
you can find some softwares in internet which will
find NTFS partitions from dos itself and try those softwares

I tried this on a Windows 2000 PC. Might work on NT Workstation. If you have access to another NT Workstation laptop. Try making the ERD there then put in the Win NT CD in your laptop and select repair option. When it ask for the ERD use the one that you created from the other unit.
If the repair is successful it will allow you
to start the OS. The only thing is that the
settings will be ones from the other unit some
of the programs might not work unless you re-install them. but at least it should have you
in a state that you can copy your essential files
to the server or another PC. Then you can wipe
out the unit and re-install the OS again.
Hi,
Easy way for NTFS is to use NTFSDOS (http://www.sysinternals.com/ntw2k/utilities.shtml) and back up your files.
Good luck,
