They are found on the ultimate boot cd (http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/) for example.

I tried to format hard drive using normal format command and then it says
" trying to recover allocation unit message 21565" and it has been like that for 8 hrs now with the number changing in increments of 1. I am just hoping it may fix it.
