Hello GDH,
The HD that I am running my search on is a 30GB that I replaced about 3 years ago, at the time the OS was Windows 98SE and the system crashed, at the time my OS told me that the 30GB had a bad track, 01, or 00 I can not remember which one but I do know it could not be read. I put in a Seagate 70GB plus I installed Windows XP, I put the 30GB in the packaging that the Seagate was shipped in and put it away and waited for someone to make hardware so I could hook the drive up externally using a USB connection. Then I started looking for a program that would recover my files, and I located Recover My Files. My wife works with a Family Tree program and we lost all her research on the 30GB, I was able to recover some files using this software, however some images of files recovered show the same info listed on documents, as if the first entry on a family member doc was written over and over.....
