If by "factory install" you mean reinstalling Windows, then maybe? I'm not sure. As for mounting /boot externally, you can do it with any Linux Live CD (ex. Ubuntu). In fact, if you're lucky, some of the more modern ones might even populate the file explorer with the various partitions on your hard drive and you can use that instead to point and mount the /boot partition. Otherwise, you'll need to do it through the command line. There's lots of examples on Google and YouTube; here's one using CentOS 6: http://docs.intuitivetechnology.com/article/92-how-to-mount-linux-filesystem-from-a-live-cd-and-copy-a-backup But it's essentially the same procedure no matter what distro's LiveCD you use.
