In my case, chkdsk didn't work as even Windows XP couldn't recognise my
partition. For chkdsk to work, a partition must first be recognised as a
Windows partiton, be it NTFS, FAT16 or FAT32. My corrupted partition was
recognised as a raw filesystem.
Also, I do not have FlexNet installed.
In my case, the only utility that worked to repair the partition was
TestDisk (https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/TestDisk).
Using this utility, I recovered the MFT.
Perhaps this might offer a clue as to what is going on.
