Post subject: | NTFS Data Recovery? |
Does anyone know a good program to recover data from a corrupt drive using NTFS? A week and a half ago my wife's machine crashed bad. I tried the obvious solution of adding the drive to my machine, mine won't even boot with her drive attached. I have had some success with Active@recover from www.ntfs.com. With that I used a DOS boot disk, the program can read the drive but is very, very slow (16 hrs to scan root directory, 7 days to recover 5% of the lost data) I'm trying to recover about 6Gig of digital pics. Using this program It will take about 140 days straight. Does anyone know of a better program or method? |

it it's the actual hard drive and it's still under the manufacturer's warranty, contact them... they'll likely get a credit card # from you (you likely won't be charged anything though) then they send you a new hard drive... once you get that one going (install windows, etc) you should check the manufacturer's website (or ask about it when they call) for a program to recover your data from your old hard drive... I've gone through this once or twice with hard drives crashing... both times the manufacturer was really cool about it... |

Well im really good at the hardware aspect, but weaker on the programming. i.e. 98%-hardware 82%-Programming. Still 90% tho. |

assembly isn't that hard once you figure out how things work... you still need to have programming skills though |
