Accessing NTFS HD from DOS booted USB drive

I can boot my USD drive into DOS, and I'm looking for ways to get information off the hard drive once in DOS.

Any ideas?

Never tried it myself, but this looks promising.

Hi,
There's a way of accessing NTFS drives through DOS. The procedure is:
1. Get ntfsdos.exe from www.sysinternals.com (if I still remember what I did 2.5 yrs back), or do a google search simply.
2. Load it into your pen drive or a Floppy.
3. Boot DOS, execute ntfsdos <enter>.

This will detect all NTFS volumes on your hard-drive.
That way your problem should be solved, if I got it right.

Bye.
