need help: windows emulator crashed

I use a g5, on which I run virtualPc 7. Doing its best immitation of a real pc, it crashed, saying something about page files, & not having enough. In desperation, I turned off the feature where you can roll back the pc to a previous day. It won't reboot no matter what I do. Any one know a way to get files off the pc, or fix it to work again? A link to resources or another forum would be appreciated if there are no editors who have had a similar problem.

I don't know anything about working with VirtualPC (just what I've read, and even then most of that was VMWare instead), but wouldn't it have created some space on the harddisk that you can navigate from within OS X? Or does it create all of said files inside of some mystery space (I wouldn't really call it a partition, from what I understand of the processes involved here)?

Apple's developer's site says that OS X can read NTFS volumes, so if the files are visible to the operating system, then it should be just a simple copy-paste job.
