Hello folks.

Trying to use Recuva on an external laptop drive.

I have scanned the drive for viruses and spyware and have no errors.
Also i have checked for drive errors using chkdsk in various ways.

When i dry to deepscan the drive recuva starts for about 10 seconds then gives an error " Bad Allocation "

I have ran Recuva in debug mode to see what the error file would produce , I have included this in the post as it is very small.
Can some of you wizards help me out.

Best Regards

Error bellow.

I've got that bad allocation error too, but my drive is ntfs 39GB. The log is a bit large.
I've tried chkdsk /f but it cant determine the volume state and it stops.

Without deep scan the error is "Unable to read MFT". With Deep scan, it finds 24 files up to 50%, then +13000 files, and at 100% it begins allocating a huge amount of memory till that bad allocation.
