Is it possible to use "Recover My Files" to restore on a corrupted hard drive all files, registry, partitions, etc. on the same hard drive so that the drive can be re-installed as the "Master Drive" and run exactly as is "Was" just before it became corrupted? Details of the "corruption" are as follows:
--HP non-destructive recovery was run, but "hung up" at the final "Finish" window
--HP DESTRUCTIVE recovery was started but lasted at most a few seconds when computer was immediately shut off with "On/Off" button.
--There are two partitions:
----8 GB hidden partition FAT32 with "HP Recovery files". The FAT32 file system is correctly indicated in the "Drive Management" view in WinXP
----52 GB data and programs partition NTFS. Only "Healthy (Active)" is indicated in the "Drive Management" view. NO "NTFS" is shown in this "Drive Management" view.
---Possibly all the files can be saved to another external Hard drive.
HOWEVER, I am wondering if the corrupted drive can be re-consituted to run exactly as it had run just prior to its failure and corruption.
Thank you.
