Hi,
Today suddenly my disk hang and stop responding. later it wont boot
Meanwhile i open i safe mode and run chkdsk it says "file record segment xxxx is unreadable. Finally i conneted as a secondry disk and open. After waiting for long time, it shown my currupt disk. Other then c drive i am able to access all drives, but speed very-2 slow. Now can you give any suggestion. I mean copying all imp data will taking time , instead any other way to speed up /fix using installing some 3rd party s/w and try to fix bad sector . or only way to back up my data
My disk is seagate 400 GB 7200 RPM ide disk and only 6 month . I want to take backup before send it to replacement . any suggestions

change is constant!!
1)first try to fix bad sectors with checkdisk or any other utility.
2)defragment u r drive . This will reduce slowness.
3)if u partition is corrupted/not opening then use third party tool like Recuva ,GetDataBack for FAT/NTFS ,Active Partition Recovery ,Ontrack Easy Recovery Pro etc...

my suggestion for u would be using hiren's boot cd 10.2 *www.hiren.info/pages/bootcd

Now, Even attaching as a secondary drive, it is not showing my drives(partions) , what can i do now? But My disk is showing under - Device manager->Disk drive... Here it is showing my disk also, but my drives (partions) are not visible in my computer. I tried using hdd re-generator . it detect and start to regenerate..1,2 and up to 400 i wait later it shows 45 hr remain, I stopped. any other way?

Now, partitions not showing up is not a good sign. Try SystemRescueCD (www.sysresccd.org). If all fails and if the data is very important, take it to a local data recovery place.

they generally charge per MB, rs 30 / MB or so

hirens boot cd is a list of s/w

find the ISO in prev month digit dvd.. very useful in such cases

Finally i recover most of my data using tool suggested above. But one problem is still there no one is recognize hdd more than 160 gb, remaining 200+ gb these s/w are showing blank unpartioned space . Is any s/w which recognize 400 gb? because i am sure last 200+ gb is not corrupted and these s/w even shows my c drive also which was badly corrupted .
In Active Partition Recovery there is no option to recover file/folder.
