Clarence, LF does give you a list of files on the damaged drive and you select any or all to copy to the destination drive. I would think a FAT32 drive would be the simplest for a destination drive, as you could put everything there and have it all in one place, if you have a large enough spot on a disk. Why not get a new hard-drive -- seems like you could use a spare to have around anyways -- call it the Sunday Night Movies drive. w

Clarence, I just remembered: PQ has a demo version of LF that you can download from their site. You will be able to see the files on your lost drive but not be able to recover them. When you go into Products, and Lost & Found, click on "try it out" and it will have you fill out an application and then send you your username/password by email (takes about a minute). I hope LF does work for NT -- the label on the downloadable trial version says win9x. Side-note: When I talked to PQ about the "lost space" on my hard-drive they suggested getting PM to see if I could get it back that way. Now you need LF from using PM. Hmmmm..... Interesting symmetry. w
