Hello Kermit:
    I'm afraid your drive, and its data, are gone.
    If your data is REALLY important to you and you have no backups, you
could send the drive to a data recovery outfit like Ontrack.
    They can recover the data but they are expensive.
    Incidentally, cross-posting is considered rude because not everyone has
access to the same newsgroups.
