Ah, NTSF = secure filing system. As far as I am aware, you can only access a NTFS drive via the system it was set up on. It was invented for companies to securly store their data, so the only way in was via the original front door and therefore, if someone stole your computer and did not know the password, it was impossible to get at your info.

Before you jump off a bridge, call a hard drive recovery company for advice!

I always use the FAT system over NTFS for that very reason. With FAT, you can always get at your info via a DOS boot disk if all else fails.
