CD Data recovery

Can anyone suggest on how to recover Data from partially corrupt CDs?

I usually backup my works and other necessary files in CD when I need to. Also... I backup Digicam images to preserve. But CDs sometimes do show message like 'unable to read data' from parts of it....while other files/images from the same CD are readable.

I've tried several ROM drives... still gives the same result. What is the way to recover data from certain segments of the CD?

Use "CDCheck" to read data if you get CRC error. Works pretty good.

I think IsoBuster is a better match:

I used CdCheck to recover some of my stuff from my CD but it couldn't recover files that are too damaged but you could still give it a try!!
