Well - I tried dd_rescue and it successfully copied the disk, minus the
dodgy blocks. And it booted too. My next adventure was with the partitioner.
My plan being to increase the size of the win & linux partitions and install
the newest version. I apparently increased the size of the linux partn, but
the win partn didn't show the increase i gave it. All seemed fine at
first...

Anyway, long story short, I can no longer boot from the new drive, and have
to use the original HD again. Indeed, Knoppix doesn't even see it when I
attach it via the USB caddy. Is there a way I can rescue it?

Many thanks
