If a digital camera or smart card isn't detected by TestDisk or PhotoRec, plug the memory card in a USB card reader. That compiler has internal mappings to Windows drives that use only the names sdX.

drive location) rather than ' hdX' (the usual IDE designation). Windows versions of TestDisk use /dev/sdX as the disk name (where 'X' would be a, b, c. The Windows version of TestDisk refers to NT 4/2000/XP/2003 only for Win 9x see DOS version of TestDisk. To handle hard disks larger than 137 GB, support for 48-bit Logical Block Addressing (LBA) must be available. Windows 98 (with the correct patches) can handle hard disks larger than 32 GB - see: /?id=243450 for any info that might pertain to your version of Windows 98. Hard disks and other media that are larger than 32 Gigabytes (GB) in size are not supported under any version of Windows 95. They do not follow the same standard specifications used by TestDisk to find your drive.
Note: In some rare cases, you may need to connect your hard drive directly to one of the motherboard's IDE connectors as some IDE 'add-on cards' are broken. The hard disk must be detected by the computer's BIOS.
