We have an old PC in the house from maybe the early 2000's. We were using it up until about 07, and haven't used it since. However, it does have a lot of old family photos on.
Recently I tried to boot up the PC to no avail. Open up the casing, and most of the component "blocks" were rusted and very loose. Wonderful. I strip everything down and manage to remove the IDE drive. Thankfully, there is no damage on this at all and it looks to be in fine working condition.
After a request on here on the best way to get data off this drive, I purchase an IDE enclosure and hook the whole thing up to my PC. The drive is whirring away fine, my PC recognises that the drive is connected - but it says the data is corrupted.
Any way at all to get the data off this drive? Any software to "uncorrupt" the data? Any help is appreciated.
