Resized a logical NTFS partition (D:, second and last drive) using
Partition Magic 8. Resizing and moving opeartions went ok, and got
the #45 CRC error message right after. Moved up C (also NTFS) to the
space just created by resizing D, no error. Now I can see D drive
from My Computer and all the folders and files in it, explore through
folders, but none of the files can be opened. Tried chkdsk from
command prompt via safe mode, immediately get FRS 132 is unreadable
and goes on forever. Is there a way to recover the files? Can the MFT
be re-written or modified? In both system tools from Control Panel and
PM8 the partition is there and still occupied with the data.

Thank you.

First step is cloning the disk using a sector-by-sector copy utility that is
able to deal with read errors. Then on the clone logical damage can be
addressed.
