Not sure this is the correct forum but!!!!!!

How does one recover the directories that chkdsk "finds" and store in FOUND files?

Sadly, one does not. The first thing I would do is back up the drive, then run extensive drive diags on the hard drive. Errors of that nature are usually (but not always) the sign of a bigger problem than the crash that created them.
