Issues with BSOD after running MBAM. I am getting the 0x0000007e stop message. I can't reboot in safe mode or any mode. I was wanting to get my files off my harddrive (Lenovo Thinkpad T400). I've got a portable hard drive that I want to move the files to. I have a Recovery Disk which I can boot the computer from, but I don't see where I have an option to save my files before starting the recovery process. Any help?

One way to do it would be to remove the hard drive from the T400 and attach it to a working computer with either a USB adapter or enclosure, ($20-$30). Also attach your external hard drive to the same working computer and then use Windows Explorer to copy your files over.
