Hard Drive problem help please

[Krux]

My computer turned off while another computer on my network was ripping an ISO to its hard drive, now the partition that the iso was ripping to can't be opened, is the drive #@%ed or is there anyway to get back on it? I would really hate to lose all the stuff on it considering it was a 50gig full of mp3's and movies of mine.

any programs? utils anything!?!?! please some one!!!

Have you tried doing a check disk on the drive. That might fix any errors that were caused by the shutdown.

[Hipster Doofus]

All seem to have a free trial or are read only but hopefully you might find one that is able to show that your files are still there..... or not.

Hope you get your files as i lost a full 80Gig drive not so long ago (Oh the Pain.. )

the virtual labs one is the only one that can show me my files but they want 195 bucks for the first GB and 1 for each addition gig that I save wtf kind of rip off is that #$^#

I don't know if this is possible for you, but if it is not a primary drive, try mounting it in another computer

windows says that the file system is "raw" it used to be NTFS now I can't get to any files on the drive and every pc I have has XP on it.

Will Windows let you defrag it???

If so, try it. ya never know.

 

[Krux]

I had a similar problem.. I was defragging and i left the computer overnight.. i woke up.. and my fat table was fizzle fried.. the data was on there but it was allll garbage..

 

[Krux]

yah but these programs say they can get the info off, just they will only do it for like 220 bucks I don't have that kind of money, I just need one that can do it for free.

There are programs for free to restore data. Unfortunately I don't remeber which ones. Try searching with Google. Perhaps www.sourceforge.net knows something?

i've got something, but not sure

I've once got that problem on my computer too, but here i go. First of all, I've got this program called GOBACK!. This program was installed before this mess comes up then i use goback to go all the way 1month along. I got my thigns back completely in order. If it still happen and you installed the GOBACK before it happen then you're a good luck guy. If not! here's a little tip and trick, but it only work soemtimes and depend on the harddrive. Push your harddrive all the way, not too hard. The handle should stuck and be readed when you try to send the item or when you still doing something. This is important because sometime, the harddrive might *&^^&^@. Well, good luck!

Bah I'm just about ready to write it off I gave up a day ago can't find anything to get my stuff off for free so I guess I just have to bend over on this one.
