XP System Repair Guide Assistance for recovering broken Windows XP installations
Something happened to my dad's windows xp and now it won't boot. He did have a spare, unused hard drive in his computer that I installed win7 onto. That's fine and great, but here's the major problem; He downloads his emails onto his computer with no backup and now we cannot access them. He has used Outlook Express as his email client for almost 11 years. How do we access these email files and import them into, say, Thunderbird? OR How do we repair WinXP boot with no WinXP disks?
place it on a different storage device and use that method to reach the drive
Create a bootable Ubuntu USB and start the live desktop environment. You’ll be able to view the drive’s contents and safely copy data elsewhere.
Another operating system is running on a different drive. We're unsure where the emails are stored or how to access them once located. The Outlook Express application is producing errors when we attempt to open it, making it impossible to proceed further.
