Hi,
Based on the info U provided it is quite hard to tell anything for sure. I remember there were discussions about free sofware tools on this forum, but I don't know the exact topic, try searching the forum.
For me the problem is that there can be many causes of this syndrome, a good data recovery would start with a cloning of the whole drive, then a bit of analysis of FS structures. Just running programs may not give the desired results.
Furthermore if such drive with damaged sectros or file systems can get worse if windows tries to mount it.
good luck!
