Hi, the problem is that (excuses for my bad english, i'm spanish spoken): I was working with my USB HDD with the Gparted, and the energy shut down, and the hdd lose all the info, even the firmware. Then all the hdd recovery programs says "error de redundancia cíclica" and something about the sector's, i can't remember exactly, but is about the sector is zero... well, I found the mhdd, but when I ran the program with the SCSI told me: "in order to use this function, you have to install DOS ASPI driver". How can I do that, please help me.

The English isn't too bad, I understand him (I think)

Sounds like the drive has bad across, including sector 0.

The firmware will not have been erased.

Try to connect the hdd via SATA (or IDE whichever is the case) directly to the motherboard and try MHDD on it that way.

At least you will be able to see if the drive is detected and if any sectors are readable..

Assuming that your data were important, can you tell us why you were using GParted? Was there a different problem originally?
