Very strange. Maybe you saved it in Unicode / UTF-8?
Or in Word or something ;-) You could try other free
or shareware editors like TextPad to make sure that
your file is really text. Of course it could also be
the case that something on your filesystem confuses
DOS and the gibberish is not even part of what your
Notepad put in the file. Try using chkdsk / scandisk.

In Linux: just mount the image or use mtools. In Windows:
I think there is a software called WinImage... :-).
