please just one file ! NTFS a bit corrupt

[bilfast]

hi everyone. i've got a dodgy computer and
windows 2000 on it. the computer hangs up
and we have to reboot. somewhere along the
line the MFT got corrupt. so chkdsk tried
to solve some problems (inconsistencies) and
it usually deletes data in order to fix them.

its approach kill, bury, deny !!

on last run this is what happened

C:\>chkdsk /?
Checks a disk and displays a status report.


CHKDSK [volume[[path]filename]]] [/F] [/V] [/R] [/X] [/I] [/C] [/L[:size]]


  volume          Specifies the drive letter (followed by a colon),
                  mount point, or volume name.
  filename        FAT only: Specifies the files to check for fragmentation.
  /F              Fixes errors on the disk.
  /V              On FAT/FAT32: Displays the full path and name of every file
                  on the disk.
                  On NTFS: Displays cleanup messages if any.
  /R              Locates bad sectors and recovers readable information
                  (implies /F).
  /L:size         NTFS only:  Changes the log file size to the specified number
                  of kilobytes.  If size is not specified, displays current
                  size.
  /X              Forces the volume to dismount first if necessary.
                  All opened handles to the volume would then be invalid
                  (implies /F).
  /I              NTFS only: Performs a less vigorous check of index entries.
  /C              NTFS only: Skips checking of cycles within the folder
                  structure.

The /I or /C switch reduces the amount of time required to run Chkdsk by
skipping certain checks of the volume.

So i guess ntfs is corrupt because i cannot create
any files in the partition. although the
directory structure and file content is mostly preserved.
one of the files acerdisk.gho about 3.5GB is
reported as 0 bytes which i'm trying to fix.
any tools that can do that ?

i've tried active file recovery and this is the screenshot.
notice it says zero bytes. but i'm sure the huge file
is still on the volume.

Please help !!
