Here is a solid, free solution to reading HFS+ formatted discs in Windows OS using only the Snow Leopard install disc. The nice thing is that the Windows install doesn't have to be 'real' Boot Camp.
Inside Windows:
- Load up the Snow Leopard disk.
- Ignore Autoplay.
- Navigate to Boot Camp » Drivers » Apple » Bootcamp.msi.
(Note: please choose Bootcamp64.msi if you're running 64 bit Windows). - Follow the installer instructions.
- Restart.
- Using Start » Run » msconfig, disable 'Boot Camp' from running at start up.
- Restart again.
