Ghost image corruption

Hello,

One of our Ghost image file (spanned in 3 parts) was accidentally deleted with shift+del.

There's no backup tapes of the server. I've attempted to recover with Recuva and FileRestore utilities. Both says that last 2 parts can be restored, but .GHO file itself is overwritten by some other file.

I have attempted to restore all 3 files to one folder. When attempting to open .GHO file with Ghostexp.exe (from Deployment Solution 6.9 SP4) I get following error:

"This is a Ghost span extent file. Please load the base Ghost image file."

I would need to get this image file to work, so it can be deployed to client systems again. There's no particular files inside the image that needs to be recovered.

I know this is a desperate fight, but is there anything to try?
