I've had great success with an app called getdataback.

  Subject: [THIN] OT: PC hard disk recovery tools


  We've been experiencing a lot of disk failure lately on the desktop scene. Do 
you guys have any favorite third party disk management tools or utilities for 
desktops that have saved your butt?

   

  I feel we shouldn't have to recover data, because users should be saving to 
the network. And why try to save a power surged dirty messed up disk? But hey, 
the boss is a spending mood and the level 1 techs may benefit. 

   

   

   I use chkdsk to repair or if that doesn't work can I usually get data off 
the bad drive by plunking in a boot drive. I've used File Scavenger with great 
results. But that's about it. I don't believe in magic, or putting the disk in 
the freezer etc.

   

  Thanks,Joanne
