recovery

I've damaged the drive I had in my windows laptop and now I want to try to recover as many files as possible. I know very little about linux though.

I have Ubuntu 10.04. I have a docking station for the drive and it is connected to my linux machine. The drive appears in disk utility.

Unfortunately, this is where I have no idea where to proceed. Any help is appreciated and I can provide more info if needed.
