Hello.
I have a laptop that wont boot (freezes at windows logo). All the HDD tests indicate its full of bad sectors, so im trying to get what I can from it.
I only have a HDD dock and a external dvd drive. None of the tools in UBCD will let me move files to the dvd drive.
I can see the drive on my laptop when its connected through the dock, but I had no permission to access the drive to just copy and move the User directory, and eventually now its just named "NTFS" and wont let me access it at all.
Im working on getting an external usb hard drive, and hopefully it will show up on partedmagic and let me transfer files with that or with any other data recovery tools in UBCD.
If you have a damaged drive that you cant load but need to get whatever data you can, what procedure is recommended? I seem to hit a wall after working for a hour getting over one hurdle, and with 3 drives with errors its getting tiring.
