I'm trying to recover a windows machine that boots in safe mode every time. Even when I try to boot with network support, it doesn't. It won't even enter into debug mode.

I heard wind of Knoppix and it sounds like the perfect tool to use, I am downloading right now. I need to transfer program files to a network share, then the machine can be wiped clean.

Do I have to configure network settings when booting through Knoppix? Do I have to ftp into th server? can I just use a serial cable to store the files on another cpu?

Any tips would be great. Thanks all, and thanks knoppix

Can't you just take out the HD and plug it into another computer?

In order of the questions.

No
Only if your storing to a ftp server
yes, but I don't know how to do it. Probably complicated
