Ok I have a Linux Freespire CD and I need some help…?

I have this cd and i want to run the live version of it and it just won’t work it first of all says that I don’t have the correct software–pick from a list or go on the net to find out what software is needed so i pressed net and it wouldn’t open. Then also the live thing is a zipped file I don’t know what I’m supposed to do I open it with winzip and it brings up a window to extract it but it’s not like the normal windows I tried to extract it on my flashdrive which is 512 and it says insert disk 2 so i stopped it so I don’t know what to do does anyone have any suggestions?

Windows Password Hashes and Live CD Linux?

If the registry is blocked through windows, but you can boot from a livecd, how might you go about recovering the hashes out of the sam file? Are there any tools for linux? Can I do it manually if I mount the Hard drive? I mannually pulled the sam file, but don’t know what else to do. On my windows I have created rainbow tables ready to crack the passwords.
I would prefer not to reset passwords. I want to know the importance of Bios and if A livecd could pull hashes on one computer, giving access to all the computers admin. user.
