If nobody comes up with a suitable Windows-based tool for you, you can
disconnect the drive and hook it up as a slave to a *nix machine. From
there, you can use 'the sleuth kit' to work on the drive.
http://www.sleuthkit.org/sleuthkit/desc.php
From the website:
"The Sleuth Kit (previously known as TASK) is a collection of UNIX-based
command line file system forensic tools that allow an investigator to
examine NTFS, FAT, FFS, EXT2FS, and EXT3FS file systems of a suspect
computer in a non-intrusive fashion. The tools have a layer-based design
and can extract data from internal file system structures. Because the
tools do not rely on the operating system to process the file systems,
deleted and hidden content is shown."
NOTE: I've never used this tool, so I cannot speak for it's reliability,
effectiveness, etc.
