    Software to Copy from a Damaged Drive

    Is there a program out there that will attempt to copy all of the data from a certain folder, or drive and just give up on the stuff that fails?

    Let me be a little more clear. I have a harddrive that has failed and cannot boot on its own. I've set it as a secondary drive on another computer and am now attempting to copy as much of the data over as I can. There are many many directories and files however, and windows xp apparently stops copying a directory over as soon as one of the files within it fail. What I need is something that will allow that file copy to fail and continue with the rest of the files.
