Check out this topic:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=25091.0It is a program that looks for bitcoin private keys on a computer disk. I never needed it but tried it because it looked useful. it worked back in 2013 with my wallet. I deleted a wallet and put it to work on my disk. It found all the keys and made a new wallet.dat file from them.
If you can't find the code I put my copy here: http://gravina.x10host.com/thing/wallet-recover-0.3-linux.tar.gz
Give it a try.
If you do recover some old populated bitcoin addresses they may also contain Bitcoin Cash, Bitcoin Gold and Clams.
