>>They emailed me a copy (of Search and Rescue) which is the same sw as LF but with more options to view data on the source drive.<<

Free? Pretty cool.

One thing I would try before starting over is partition the drive -- either into FAT 16 pieces or into one big FAT 32 drive. This will give LF or SR a drive to reference to when searching. May not work, but worth a try.

Did you get the important stuff back?

Don't forget about the professional alternatives.

I agree with wily. If you restore the clone it will restore to the beginning of the drive. The files toward the end of the drive in the later partitions should still be there after the restore and L&F will have another chance.

Were the files in FAT 16 partitions? There is an oops command in Xtree Gold DOS file utility that recovers files that were accidently deleted (not the same as your situation as the files were not deleted) from FAT 16 partitions. The oops command is a DOS command but I do not know the DOS equivalent. It may be worth a try after you restore the first part of the drive.
