Ummm... what kind of OS are you trying to extract from? I'm pretty sure that a win98 disk will not mount an NTFS hard drive. You're going to have to find an NTFS boot disk. I think that you can use those 4 disk that win2k comes on and boot into the recovery console in order to access the volume.

i prolly know 10% haha
ok, now another question. What kinda boot disk is best to use? i am using a windows 98 boot disk, cos it's the only one that doesn't take up 4 disks! lol
Also, someone mentioned earlier that I should install a USB driver onto the boot disk. do i just put a USB driverin there? haha

Chances are, the driver will either a) require/allow you to tell it what
drive letter to assign or b) tell you on boot.
However, I'm thinking that if you don't know how to determine what drive
letters are live in dos, maybe this isn't the best route to take....
Seriously -- how much have you worked in DOS?
