Default File recovery software?

I was given my grandmother's computer to check out. It's very obvious that the hard drive's on it's way out. I started to run CHKDSK, but go almost nothing but errors. I went into A43 explorer (using BartPE) and I can only see one directory on the drive with no files anywhere to be found. However, it does show about 27GB worth of data on there...

So, does anyone know of some good software solutions that can at least pull files from the drive? I'm still unsure if the drive has hardware issues or simply some software problems, but regardless, my grandmother has tons of photos she would like to have recovered if possible.
