Hi to copy in command prompt you can use this syntax:
copy file to be copied destination

copy file.doc c:\ 'this would copy file.doc to the root directory in c:
copy file.doc c:\ f1 'this would copy file.doc to the folder f1 in c:

If you can't do what cguan_77 suggests, then you can remove the HDD from your laptop, put it into an external USB enclosure (of the right type - IDE or SATA) and connect the drive to another PC to get your files off.

Hope that helps.
