[Fmpro] Crash

[Tracey Larvenz]

Try Data Rescue II for ProSoft Engineering.  Disk Warrior isn't really
designed for this kind of thing.  If Data Rescue can't do it nothing
will.  Best $80 you'll ever spend.  Also, you should get some
mirroring software, which you can (and should) set to automatically
back stuff up.  It's a life saver for those of us too lazy to do back
ups, especially since hard drives are so cheap.
