DFSee version 8.08 has just been released.

It includes several fixes and improvements, including reset of 
bad-sector/cluster administration for several filesystems and SORT 
partition table entries.

This is the version I will use to show some of the 8.xx features at 
Warpstock Europe, Cologne in less than a week. Hope to see many of you 
there ...

DFSee is a very powerful disk-utility with disk partitioning, filesystem 
and disk analysis, file recovery, UNDELETE for HPFS JFS, and NTFS, 
resizing, imaging, cloning and sector editing.

More details at:

   Note: Most of these can also be downloaded using '808'
         instead of the generic '8xx' version number

  - FINDROOT NTFS, fixed trap on random data in some sectors

  - LVMREDO  Added to the list of 'fdisk' commands and documented
  - MENU     FAT, HPFS and NTFS add 'Reset bad sectors' selection
  - MENU     Removed obsolete 'F9' from 'Disk and Media' menu item
  - NOBADS   HPFS, reset the bad-sector-list to an empty state
  - NOBADS   NTFS, reset $BadClus and $BitMap, to NO bad sectors
  - NOBADS   Reset clusters marked as 'BAD' in both FAT areas
  - NTSIGN   Added command description and usage on '-?'
  - NTSIGN   Fixed confirmation for non-windowed interactive use
  - PART     Add explicit warnings/errors on EBR BACKWARD/LOOP
  - PART dr  Allow partition selection for '-c' style LVM letters
  - PART-xml Add flag1/2 value, fixpbr/chs hints, installable flag
  - PTE      'SORT' button sorts table on the start sectornumber
  - QUERY  PN returns 1 when partition has valid LVM information
  - QUERY  DN/DX returns #partitions with/without LVM info on disk
