Hard Drive Horked - Again!

Gah - I went forward and used my recovery utility (EZ Recovery). I would have sworn that I set up that partition as NTFS. Let it do a full scan do determine that, it took eight hours, and didn't find diddly. So I changed some parameters, and let it do another scan, same thing.
For giggles I let it do a scan on FAT32, and it found it in ten seconds.
It took approx. two hours to fully scan the FAT32 partition, and everything was *garbage.* There were like six recoverable files. I don't get it.
Additionally, this is a hardware fault, why would Windows 2000 be any better?
SirPeale:
Mate of mine hooked me up with a program called GetDataBack. EZ Recovery didn't do diddly. This is pulling *everything* out, and do I mean everything. Wish I had this program a couple years ago, some important stuff I had back then got killed.
I'm backing up my email TONIGHT!
fredster:
Did this "getdataback" utility check the files? Can you read them?
Where did you get it? I could use something like that.
SirPeale:
It checked the files, and copied them to another drive.
