    you can install windows in c , windows directory,use install ,no format hard drive option,,use existing drive state,.THIS will leave your documents as is, in old,user name eg joes documents , my documents folder, or use a linux mint livecd to boot from cd, copy data to a usb drive.
    google linux mint ,fits on 700meg cdr.set bios boot from cd,drive 0= cd.
    or try f8 safe mode ,directory services restore.
