This is the disk I see now in Windows Disk Management:



I want to dump the provided images on the partitions.
That "report" is only showing the file system contents of the one file system type it recognizes (blk0p4, FAT-32, a.k.a: USB-storage).
It is just a pretty GUI picture of the partition table, plus it has detected and auto-mounted the FAT-32 partition.

You will have to load an ext2/ext3 driver for your Windows box to recognize the first three.
It has been awhile, but the last time I looked there are several available to choose from.

Even after loading the Windows ext2/ext3 driver, Windows Disk Manager will only show you the file system contents.
We want the storage media contents that underlies the file system.

You will have to try some of the Windows "Disk Clone" and/or "Disk Backup" loose in the world to get storage media contents.

Hmm...
Well, at this point, you can at least dump the contents of the USB-storage partition.
I would not (yet) run any Windows FAT-32 disk repair programs on it - it would be nice to get the copy of the media before letting some end-user auto-repair program loose on the only copy (the one on the flash media).
