One way to retrieve personal data from a problematic hard drive or computer is to boot from a Live Linux DVD or USB drive.
I used Linux Mint 19.2 MATE 64-bit on a SanDisk USB drive.

NEWS 130926
I've made yet a another version (20130926) of exGENT 2013. This time for the 64 bit architecture. I've kept my two previous versions 20130423 and 20130415 on Sourceforge.net. The old versions are for the 32 bit architecture. The new version (130926 of 1070 MB) uses LXDE as Desktop environment. Used kernel: 3.11.1-gentoo-exton (with kernel sources). The system can easily (in about 5 min) be installed to hard drive or/and to a usb pen drive....
The system is a based on Debian Jessie (upcoming Debian 8?). There are also certain elements of Debian Sid (unstable). LXDE is used as Desktop environment. “The Lightweight X11 Desktop Environment (LXDE) is an extremely fast-performing and energy-saving desktop environment“. DebEX Barebone uses the original Debian kernel 3.9-1-amd64 (Kernel.org’s 3.9.6, stable). The system language is English.
