Something to try with dd: Go into DOS, defrag the filesystem, and use whatever tools you have there to find the location of the file on the disk. Then go back to Linux and try this: dd if=/dev/<win32 partition> count=2600k ibs=1k obs=1k skip=<offset of file> | tar -zvxf - home/darxus -- John Hasler [EMAIL PROTECTED] (John Hasler) Dancing Horse Hill Elmwood, WI
