diego: Attach a copy of the drawing to your next post.  Maybe someone here will have better luck unless of course it is encrypted in which case neither you nor anyone else here will be able to open it without the password.

Maybe a quick check suggested by the principal themselves with varioussteps 

http://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/autocad/troubleshooting/caas/sfdcarticles/sfdcarticles/AutoCAD-File-Corruption.html

Otherwise, try using  DWG RecoveryToolbox s/w just to make the file legitimacy for recovery chances of prevcopies.  http://www.oemailrecovery.com/dwg_recovery.html

Hopefullyfrom Autocad autosave by default, it should have saved dwg file automaticallywith ac$ as default extension, and if we can just find the *.ac$ file andchange ac$ to dwg. There may be slight chance. The AutoCAD's autosave file issaved in this folder: C:\Users\[User Name]\appdata\local\temp\. typically.

There is a big difference between a corrupted drawing and one that is encrypted.

If a drawing is corrupted then try using the RECOVER command to open it.  If the drawing can be opened but not saved for some reason then try using the Overkill, -Purge (Regapps then All) and Audit commands on it to clean it up.  Once you do then maybe, just maybe you can save it but I'd recommend saving it under a different name.

If the drawing is encrypted (do you mean password protected?) then kiss it goodbye because you aren't going to open it.  Period.
