first let me say thanks to you eneles, getdataback was incredible, it not only got me all my files back, it maintained the original folder structure and filenames!

I was wondering, now that my data is secure, is there something i can try with testdisk to fix the hard drive? It had no problems transferring the data, and it shows up in My Computer. Which suggests to me that the data isn't corrupt or irretrevable. I think the data to access it just got corrupted.

Can you suggest anything eneles? Thanks again for your great help!
