I've copied all data to another hard drive, removed partition and made new one in windows. All is working fine now and no warnings in Testdisk.

I also runned SMART diagnostics and there was warning:
(C7) Interface CRC Error Count 98 98 0 1298 attention

I've changed Heads to 255 and sectors to 63 and then [ Analyse ]

here's the log:

I have similar problem... suddenly my partition went RAW but Testdisk can list the files. There is also a problem with heads per cylinder value. My value is 60 and testdisk says it should be 255... I don't know if that matters or not.
Fiona, can you explain steps to rebuild my partition to be usable ...
