I've found a nice utility: Parted Magic (Open Source freeware)
Note the, "If you would like to use Parted Magic from a CD" on their page, which is a download of an ISO image you can write to CD, and have the Parted Magic LiveCD (bootable).
You boot to the CD and get a Linux Desktop (screenshot, outdated) where you can run hard drive tools.
- Ghost for Linux
- Linux Partition Manager (can handle NTFS partitions)
- TestDisk from CGSecurity
I also like, that after reaching the Linux Desktop (in a RAM-Disk) it ejects the CD automatically. Therefore if you select to reboot, it will not boot to the CD.
