Just an idea, since I am going thru this... Recovering a crashed drive.
Get one ofe those little IDE to CF flash SD boards (mine was $15)
Image the broken SD card to your PC (Ntfs mechanic in my case)
Run some recovery SW, Im using NTFS mechanic with success on the image
Restore to a new SD card
Just an idea

Subject: trying to save a GPS
I know this isn't old... but I'm trying to rescue an Omnitech 16878-US
GPS from
the recycling bin.....
It boots, gives the Go!, Maps, and Setting icons, you can touch any of
them, get
a click sound, and then... locked up solid.
I applied a 'quick fix' from them, but that didn't fix anything.
I believe that it is more likely the software on the SD card has gotten
damaged
somehow.
Anybody have one of these ?
Would like to get it working.
It is a WinCE 5.0 based PDA basically (restricted to run the software
provided
of course).
