Fixing Windows with Knoppix | |
|
||
| Time: 09:03 EST/14:03 GMT | News Source: ExtremeTech | Posted By: John Quigley | ||

Do you use Knoppix? This bootable Linux distribution that comes in the form of a CD or DVD can be a lifesaver when your computer goes awry. In this feature, we guide you through the process of fixing Windows with Knoppix, which includes resizing Windows partitions, solving key system file problems, and recovering data. This is a chapter from the ExtremeTech book Hacking Knoppix. You or someone you know will encounter a seemingly unfixable problem with a Microsoft Windows operating system environment at one time or another. When this occurred in the past, most users would reinstall their operating systems, sometimes wiping out significant amounts of data that was needed on the system. Now you can use Knoppix to (often) correct your Windows system problems without losing any data and save the time associated with reinstalling all of the operating system files and applications. | ||

| I just recently did this. I used Knoppix to attempt to resize some partitions on an old Windows 2003 server I have. The QTPart software that comes with Knoppix nearly destroyed my machine, but Knoppix worked fairly well. |

Knoppix 4 won't boot on my machine:
AMD Athlon 64 X2 4800+ ASUS A8N32-SLI Deluxe GeForce 7800GTX 2GB Ram Sata Drives It just hangs up during the loading process, right after the GUI comes up. TL |
