I have a very important dvd backup. Unfortunately the others were knackered in a fire recently so this is the only one. Porblem is that the disk is physically cracked across the centre hole and this crack has JUST touched the centre of the disk surface. I could see the disc at work but at home trying to copy using the burner I burnt it with, the computer does not see the disc.

I tried Isobuster and CdRecovery but they don't see the disk as being in the drive.

Most of the disc is undamaged just tiny fraction of a millimeter in the centre..

How can I recover?

First the fire now this and years of important built up resources for my job may be lost.
