1 edit | said by neonhomer  :Used Spinrite to recover the first 1% of the drive. Then used FixDisk (I think) to recover the partition info from the backup that is made automatically on the disc. Recovered MBR data. Used CHKDSK /f again on the disc, and it came back. Quickly got my data off the drive... all 160GB of it... Is it possible, since you actually sound in your first post like you know what you are doing and that your problem was somewhat odd, that no one had anything of use to offer before you found the solution yourself, less than 24 hours later?
I read your initial post the same day you posted, but couldn't think of anything useful to help you, so chose not to post at all. I suspect I wasn't the only one.
Thanks for posting back your solution. It might help someone else who runs into a similar situation.
