I have a toshiba laptop running windows xp home ed. with an intel celeron M cpu 420 @ 1.60GHz, 1024 KB cache, and running 2GB of ddr2 ram. It has recently crashed and some one told me to try a knoppix cd to try and recover the drive to boot into windows. I have tried to recover the drive with a system restore cd but I am unable to do so because the admin password has some how enabled itself with me the user ever setting one to begin with. So far I have burned an image to cd of ADRIANE-KNOPPIX_V6.2.1CD-2010-01-31-EN. When I had started the laptop with the newly burned knoppix cd the laptop had trouble reading the cd until after a couple of times it finaly recognized the cd and it booted. It ran fine for a moment and got an input/output error. Dont know really how to handle this program and I am new to using knoppix if someone suggest a fix thanks.
