have you tried running chkdsk /F?
EDIT: But I really doubt it'll work, it sounds like your HDD has already failed beyond the point of recovery..

WD has their own scan software you can download and burn to a cd/dvd and run that and it will tell you if there are any bad sectors on the hard drive and if there is it will attempt to repair and allocate the unused sectors
Edit: here is the link
