If you have Windows 95/98, you can open the emelfm file manager and navigate to the /mnt directory
Then right-click on your Windows partition (usually hda1 or hda2) and choose "Mount" from the menu.
You can copy or move files by highlighing them in the source window pane and then press the "Copy" or "Move" button and they will be copied or moved into the second window pane.
For Windows NT/2000/XP, you cannot write to these partitions NTFS type by using the base DSL livecd.
There once was a captive-ntfs.dsl extension package that could be used to do this, but it is not available on the main DSL package repository.
An alternative approach might be to download and burn an INSERT livecd:
http://www.inside-security.de/insert_en.html
Insert is the inside security rescue toolkit. It is a 50MB Linux livecd like DSL and is designed for the purpose of system rescue and repair. Some of the ideas in INSERT were built upon ideas from DSL.
The main advantage of INSERT is that it comes with a captive-ntfs install script so you can use it to write to a WinNT/2000/XP partition.
