You can use a bootable Linux CD to copy your data files to a flash/external drive. There are some custom CD's that give you the tools to do this without much, if any Linux knowledge. You will need a 2nd PC to download the image and burn the boot CD.
Good Luck

Maybe access the BIOS, deactivate some hardware (ie, use the integrated graphics adapter instead of a pci added one, sound, etc) so in case some new driver is realy making a big conflict there with your hardware, at least you could do so to access the info.
A really old solution I used to have for these cases was to use a great utility , DOS based, to force the machine loading with that (is a boot loader), so that you would have access to your disk. (although might depend on the disk format, not sure) It's called Ranish Partition Manager, and you can find it here :

If you could boot with an USB, setting so from BIOS (if your machine allows) it, that'd be the easiest. If not, a bit of a strange solution (worked for me in its days) is use an old DOS software to copy from one machine to another, via paralell port, or serial port. You will need on of these cables (they are still available, from PC to PC not PC-printer, etc), and have another machine to which you can acces by DOS, maybe just using in it also a copy of Ranish Partition Manager.

You might find it easier to remove the hard drive of the failed computer and mount it in a USB drive enclosure. Then you can connect it to the netbook directly.
Good Luck
