Perhaps we have been going about this the wrong way. Instead of trying to figure out how to back it up with a Linux LiveCD, perhaps we should be talking about fixing Windows.
If the file system mounts under Linux, I am sure any problems with it could be repaired, to get to the point where you can reinstall Windows -- without formatting and losing data. Do you want any help with that? Have you tried that? If yes, why did it not work?
