i think you need another linux-installed HDD.
and join together(slave-master) in your computer.

boot from the normal.
and mount /dev/hd1 /mnt/brokenhdd something.

cp -r /mnt/brokenhdd/home/* /home

Note that this is just one of the methods.
for more search the google, alltheweb,etc.

What kind of an error message do you get when you try to ls /home ?
