Recover files from F'd up NTFS?

Yesterday I was trying to play BF2 after not playing for a few months and it kept crashing. Today, I went to play and after a few minutes of play, i got a quick BSOD and my computer restarted. However, the loading bars kept going and going and it never booted into XP. So I restarted. After the restart it said that thing Windows did not boot correctly and gave me safe mode options. I did start normally, but it BSOD's and restarted. I tried Safe mode, the loading screen with bars would run for a little while but it was BSOD. Kept doing this after loading BIOS safe defaults and such.

So I loaded into Knoppix and when I went to the C: drive it said:
"Your NTFS is inconsistent. Run chkdsk /f on Windows then reboot into
Windows TWICE! The usage of the /f parameter is very IMPORTANT! No
modification was made to your NTFS and won't be by the ntfs resizing colde
until your corrupted NTFS gets repaired."

So then I booted in to BartPE to run checkdisk with fixing (/f)and it said:
"corrupt master file table" can not run checkdisk etc

Any help in this matter would be appreciated. I don't care about recovering XP. I just wanna move my files to my other drive and reformat.

Thanks.
