You need to tell us which programs you have already tried so we do not
duplicate the list. If the disk is seriously damaged, which could be the
case, then you will need a service, not software, to recover your files and
that will be very expensive.
 
To Saker,
chkdsk recovers lost clusters into individual files. When
the FAT was damaged on your drive, check disk ran and found
each lost cluster and created all those 000.chk files.
Unfortunately they are not associated with any program or
with each other, except by accident. They are created in
the order they were on the disk platter, if the disk was
well defragged, you might be able to open each file with
notepad and see if there is any data you can save.
Operating system files/program files would be very hard to
fix, but text files might be recognizable and recoverable.
If you have a lot of time.

If you don't have a backup, you're probably out of luck. You're
trying to lock the barn door after the horse is lost.

There is really no software that helps with a problem like this.
Your chances of recovering anything from these chk files are
slim, but if some of the lost files were text files, you *may* be
able to recover some by looking at them with notepad, and
renaming and saving anything useful to you.

If a hard disk crashes, you have to expect to lose all, or most,
of what's on it. You need to protect yourself against this by
making backups.
