Any chance of running Linux in a Thumb drive and pulling her files off? I had a WinXP computer damaged by a storm electrical surge that wouldn't boot up. I was able to run Linux from a thumb drive, pull my personal information off (and I believe I mounted an external hard drive to move them to), then reformatted the laptop back to original.
