Sven,

I've heard of this before. However, I do NOT have a Windows XP CD. All of my
Windows info came stored on a partition on my hard drive. When I searched
that partition for VALUEADD\MSFT\NTBACKUP, the results are zero. If I try to
directly access this partition, I am given a warning and I cannot access it.

Does anybody know how I can access the above folder/file??
