Hi,

I have a Hp laptop with i5 Processor, 640 GB HD. My HD is Crashed due
to damage. It does not have any partition table in it. Then how I can
recover my data from it. Is anybody have some tool that to it? (Note :
Recover My File software showed some files in it, But it requires
license key. ?)

No partition table? you mean you didn't create it at first place or is
it damaged now?

Anyway, check DEFT Linux (http://www.deftlinux.net/) or System Rescue
CD (http://www.sysresccd.org/Main_Page). They are example of Linux
system that are made for system forensics and/or system resuce.

Tips: first thing you have to do, in my opinion, is creating exact
disc image. I think dd or its variant like dclfdd
(http://dcfldd.sourceforge.net/) could serve you well.

PS: you will get better answer if you direct your further question in
forensic related mailing list :)
