My hard disk have many bad sectors . Only 15GB can be partitioned.
If other 65GB is trying to partition then the partition table completely destroy
Please give a solution. My mail id is [email protected]
Download the manufacturer's diagnostic software, run it. Perhaps it can do a low-level format which will recover unusable space.
I wouldn't trust this drive with any valuable data, even if the diagnostic software works. The drive is probably soon to fail completely.

click start control panel administrative tools computer management disk management right click on your drive select properties click tools you should see click check now click start two boxes
automatically fix files and scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors place then a tick in both boxes then select check now start
you might tick one box then return after its finished the first repair then return and tick the second box you should not do anything while the chkdsk utility is in progress any input may damage this drive
I found that you get best results by ticking one box then returning after it has finished then tick the other box
since its only the sectors you are having problems with just tick the bad sector box
then download partition magic which will only install on the good sectors on your hard drive
