Hello folks. My accounting PC's hard drive is developing errors. It is a WD 20GB. I have no recent backups. I can still access most data, except the accounting files (Quickbooks pro 2008). When I try to copy these files, I get a "the drive cannot find the sector requested" error box.

I REALLY need this file!

What should I try next? I don't want to mess the file up even worse if I attempt to repair the drive. But, if that is all I can do....

I'll pay for a program if it will recover it (or freeware, shareware, etc....)

Any suggestions? chkdsk? WDs dlgdiag?

Very anxious.
