I'd first try to look at it on a couple different machines, maybe a Mac even. Different machines and different drives may have better luck but I think it's probably toast. CD's are just not a safe medium for backups. I just had a burned music CD go bad on me. I have a lot less trust in them than I did last week... ;-) A Google search of "cdr recovery" turns up this as the first hit. Looks promising and there is a free trial of some sort.... http://www.jufsoft.com/badcopy/cdrecover.asp?rid=google&kid=gccr0114 It's the first of a million and a half hits though so there are a few more choices. Good luck to your friend. Let us know how it turns out.
