Easy - activate XP

Another way would be to boot from a live linux cd, then transfer your data to a USB memory stick.

I don't think there will be an animated tutorial for this, as it is such a specific request. You need to first create a linux live CD/DVD from a site like the one below:

You don't want to install it to your PC, you only want to boot from it in the DVD drive and it will then let your browse your existing windows installation. You can then backup to a USB stick or something similar
