I am a registered owner of Corel 5 and have used it for years. I own a Sign Shop in NC and often use a variety of clipart sources to aid with logos & design.
Years ago my Corel 5, Disk 1 was partially damaged from a defective CD Rom. Upon opening the CD tray, the disk had not stopped spinning & a severe ring of scratches on the outer edge of CD appeared. As a result, a handful of directories were damaged. I have tried several devices for removing scratches as well as software recovery programs but have been unsuccessful. I also contacted Corel but it is unavailable from them as well.
I have everything that will copy backed up. Below is a list of what is un-recoverable. If anyone can please help me, I can prove ownership. It appears I lost a total on the whole disk of about 77 mb, but I am more concerned with the 55 mb of lost clipart.
