IF the format tool in Linux is fat16 (I think it is) then possibly
either the DOS 6.22 unformat tool or Norton Util

pressed ctrl+c right up until 99% or so, as its just checking the drive.
Other than that, put it in another MS PC and hope for the best, u might
have to buy some software to recover it
