I wonder if anyone on the list might be able to help me. Seems our numbers are getting low though... I'm praying someone out there may have some suggestions.
I've just had problem with Partition Magic destroying the file system on a desktop HDD with Win98 installed in one big FAT32 10GB partition. I�m guessing the file system must have been badly corrupted. But there�s one important file I'd like to retrieve from the root C:\ folder if possible.
I've been playing with the WinHex editor David mentioned a while back, and have had some luck retrieving part of the file running an automated file recovery option. But I�m only getting about 1/3 of the entire file. I�m wondering if there�s a way to locate the remainder of the file�s data, and reconstruct the whole thing manually.
If anyone reading the list might knows how to go about this sort of thing, or what kind of software may be able to do the job, I'd really appreciate hearing from you.
Thanks,
Matt
