Hi, you could also give a try to Knoppix Linux.
It is a live CD (i.e. it boots up a complete operating system without touching your hard drive), and can also read Windows partitions. I managed to read hard disks with it that seemed to be completely wasted under Windows.

Good luck, and Best Regards

Hail all you hardware veterans! I need some assistance here.

My co-worker and I are trying to recover Outlook personal files (.psd)
from a fried hard drive. The user in question moved his personal
folder off the Exchange server onto his local drive at one point.
Later on his drive got fried (I don't know how, though I've been
trying to find out), and won't boot up. So he needs to get those files
recovered.

We can't boot from the drive at all, but my co-worker used
EasyRecovery to get to the drive. But she can only access the drive's
system files--the .ini files and such.

Any ideas or suggestions? Or are we pretty much SOL?

Martin
