UBCD Tutorials: http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/tutorials.html
But here's a quick rundown
Download
Burn the ISO to CD (here's a free ISO Burning application (to save that response: http://www.imgburn.com/index.php?act=download)
Boot from the CD (just like how you boot from any other CD ie Windows CD)
Once UBCD has fully Booted up
Plug in a Flash Drive, or empty CD (you may need to purchase one of these to back up to, and obviously you may need a CD Writer, if using CDs, ie USB Flash drive preferred)
Explore your Harddrive using the various tools inside UBCD
Then copy and backup (or burn) your data
That's it !
If this is all too difficult, then yes it may be better to seek help
By the way, this should have been completed 4 days ago
Regretfully you were steered in the wrong direction by one member (who said don't use it) Hence my concern for his previous support
By the way, still according to my original post (ie Post#2 in this thread)
You can also physically mount the Harddrive in another working computer (as a secondary drive) and then just use Explorer (ie My Computer) to backup.
Still don't know why\how "D:\MiniNT" was first mentioned. Very strange :suspiciou
Other than the above clear steps to back up! Where exactly are you having difficulty?
This is why I earlier mentioned: "may need someone there with more technical knowledge than yourself to help you"
Note: Learning these techniques of backing up is a good idea for you anyway
But the best idea is to always back up first whilst Windows still worked, make sure to tell your gf that
