OK, this just CANNOT be good. I have a machine that will not boot up. I did
a Windows Recovery and it found and fixed errors .. but that did not fix the
problem.

I stuck this drive into a good machine as a slave and booted ... and check
disk came up (Wind XP Pro) and found TONS of these unredable segments. It
had some orphan messages, some correcting error in index $130 for file XXXXX,
and such.

Oh yeah, and it has some Sorting Index $130 in file XXXXX.

I can deal with losing this drive. I want to at least obtain data from it.
Will I likely be able to?

Should I invest in some program or hardware for data extraction from bad
hard drives for this? (If so, I'll take suggestions as to what and from whom)

I will be grateful for any help and suggestions with this.

Have a lovely day and thank you for reading/responding to this.
