Get Me a File Recovery Utility, Stat! (Part 1)

Computer just keeled over and died yesterday evening. The prognostics don't look good: The files inside may be inaccessible and corrupted now.

We're going to have a look inside the thing tonight and see if we can get one last crack at all the lost data. Otherwise I'm going to have to rewrite four years' worth of outlines, drafts, rewrites, and finished pieces, and I'm not expecting the result to be pretty.

Darn Windows XP and my efforts to work with intractable resources...

Hi, Sean: boot up with Knoppix or Ubuntu LiveCD and attempt to copy the files from there. I hope the stories make it out okay.
