Get a computer technician to remove the harddrive from the laptop and put it in a housing unit. It will then become a portable harddrive and all of your files should be on there. Good luck!

i prefer Unetbootin to make a usb drive bootable http://unetbootin.net/
there are howto's on the site for using it .
as for a Linux OS there are many you can use to get your stuff from the hard drive.
also seeing as the Windows hasn't been shut down properly it may give you a warning when mounting the drive .
the unetbootin program has a drop down list to chose a linux os or rescue os
Kubuntu or LinuxMint are two good options as there interface's are easier to understand .
P.S. if you need more help just send a message to me .
Good luck

maybe the best method is try telling your friends or relatives with the same brand of your laptop and insert your hard disk or go to the nearest acer company/branch for help. thats the best help i can offer.
