Hi Ashley, Adam
I have had some success in recovering data from IDE drives when everyone else thought them to be beyond hope. Plug the drive into another machine as a slave, and try mounting it. I suspect that the reiserfs might cause problems though.
One advantage of ext3 is it can be mounted as an ext2 file system - I don't suppose it is possible to do the same with reiserfs...
Regards, Paul.

Anyhow any likelyhood of recovering files on that partition seem low because of the error message, you can try booting from a recovery disk and mounting the partition manually but I don't think you are going to get very far.
