Best bet is simple, but laborious:

1. backup the disk (use HDKIT, or equivalent)

2. format the drive again (logical is okay, but why not take the opportunity
   to freshly write track and sector headers).

3. restore the drive (again, HDKIT or equivalent).

Thanx for the info, but reformating was the last thing I wanted to do.
  I tried FSR again, and so far so good, I was a little worried about using it
because the last time, it totally fragmented the disk, it doesn't like shell+
