Hard Drive Recovery?

Hey all,

I am trying to recover data off of a crashed hard disk. It is a notebook drive that came out of a Win XP Home machine. I have it plugged into an external USB enclosure. First I hooked it to a WinXP Pro machine and it made the disk access very very slow, on all disks. The OS knew it was there, as a disk, but did not show any size information. I then plugged it into my FreeBSD machine and it was recognized as a device. I try to mount it and it gives errors, I think errors about the filesystem. I 'cat'ed the device and i got a bunch of stuff, but some of it was legible. Any idea on what I can do? Is there a way to repair the file table?

Thanks!
