    Hi,
    I have an older hp notebook computer with XP home on it and it has bit the dust. I can though, still boot up linux from a cd so I was wondering what the best program/ resue cd out there is that will allow me to plug in a usb drive and copy some of my files. Thanks for the help.

    remove the drive from the laptop & attach it to a 2.5" external usb drive enclosure.

    Your Best bet would be to use a Bart XPE disc or PE disc.

    Google it and you will find it. If not then ask I will upload one.
