Help Mounting Hard Disk

[mouse8469]

I have a Dell Inspiron 8200 that has crashed and won't boot up in XP. When I open Knoppix I can see my HD on the desktop but get this error:

Could not mount device.
Reported error was:
mount: I could not determine the filesystem type, and none was specified.

Any help??? I would really like to get in and resuce some files before replacing the HD.

-thanks
