Laptop was dropped, when not running. This is what I am getting. When I scan the drive it shows the folders, but the documents and settings folder is empty. When I do a deep scan it fails before it completes. I on really need the files from the user account in D and S. It makes it through about 4% of a 500gb drive with some errors before it fails.
Am I out of luck?

As for your question, my crystal ball is in repair so I can't answer it.
