That does look pretty bad. It looks like it's probably a hardware fault, but you might want to try to install Windows 2000 or XP and see if they can read it.
The size of the harddrive makes me think that maybe you've run into the size limit built into earlier versions of Windows. If you try to install windows 2000 you can get a patch for it (http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;303013). I believe Windows XP already has the ability to read large drives.
