Okay, here's the situation; my dad has a hard drive with some really important data; mainly some JPGs and some phone numbers on it.
My original plan was to hook it up to the computer via an USB to IDE cable, and then use Get Data Back to recover the data. However, we've hit a serious snag here.
Both Windows 2000 and Windows XP computers recognize the hard drive via the USB converter, but almost immediately BSOD, with a ntfs.dll error.
So what are my options for low level data recovery?
