Some good news for a change...
I was finally able to successfully salvage about 99.99% of the FAF Files from my dead hard drives on my old dev system... The files have all been moved over to the new system but it isnt all perfectly rosy yet. I cant make FAFutures boot correctly... Not sure what the issue is, it may be to many files within the game folder or some other issue... Its just that its been so long since I worked with a true XP System that I have to relearn old quirks... also the shape files have all been salvaged but the skin files wont display in the sickpuppy editor... Going to have to take a look at that next to see if I can get them working correctly...
But at least all the work done on all the toolkit projects and shape edits has been saved! That in itself is a complete miracle considering my backup DVDs turned out to all be bad from a damaged DVD drive...
Also I cant get access to my hexeditor files so that is of major concern... Without those files I may not be able to hexedit the shapes as easily as I dont know the GUI from newer editors...
