HD Data Recovery

Hi, I recently had power supply problems where my hds would not get enough power to initalize. Anyway long story short, I replaced the power supply and my computer is working, EXCEPT for one harddrive. When I was having power supply problems, I made the mistake of attempting an installation winXP on my 160gig drive, which was primarily a storage drive. The installation stalled when it was copying xp files over and now the HD is corrupted. The HD shows up in Windows, but it is not properly formatted. I ran Ontrack Easy Recovery and it found all the files on it but I needed another harddrive to put the data on. Is there a faster way to recover my data? It took ontrack 3-4 days to fully scan my HD. Or should I just use chkdsk to fix the HD?
 
Anymore opinons? Mogy, how long did it take to fix your harddrive? I'm running this program called Stellar Phoenix and it seems like it would takes days to complete.
