On Windows7, qphotorec can detect the real harddisk but photorec cannot

The error drive splits into D drive and H drive. They are empty seen from Explorer.
I tried running testdisk but it can only detect one drive(D). Then I tried photorec but to no avail. When I tried qphotorec, surprisingly it could detect the real harddisk.

Can you run "cmd" (right click run as administrator), "photorec_win.exe /debug /log /all" ?
Choose Quit and please post the photorec.log file content.

Although qphotorec could identify the correct disk size, it could not find any file from the drive.

Any thoughts on this?
Much appreciated.
