Hello HDDGUY, thank you for your reply.
The original hdd having lot of bad sectors and it won't allow us to access smoothly. So i made a cloned hdd and trying on it to decrypt full hdd.
Looking for decrypting tool . Is it required to buy the product from mcafee and prepare the CD ?

I mean place the clone into the original hardware (i.e laptop / PC)

Yes , its really worth looking information for me and i am going through it . Thanks Loki.

I am testing the cloned drive on other system , not the original one and as for as i know this encryption (like mini os ) is independent of the system hardware. In few occasions i successfully decrypted logical partitions on other system but with the existing tool it is not giving option for physical drive. So i thought this existing BART PE cd was created with limited features.
