Hi!
My problem is that, previously i got two seagate barracuda harddisks. one is 40G and the other 80G both PATA.
now on 40GB i hav my windows running, and 80GB that contains 1 primary and 5 extended logical partitions is connected as slave.
I used Partition magic pro 8.05 to make some changes in two drives of the 80G drive (just resized them) and done a resize change on my primary bootable partition i.e. C:\
now my 80G harddisk was creating some system booting problem because of a damaged ide cable, i was stupid that i got somehow into the safe mode and used system restore of WinXP and restore the system onto previous date before th day i did the partitions changing.
now when the system rebooted, the 40G drive shows the upto-date partitions of C:\, but my secondary drive of 80G is completely lost !
i ran partition magic pro 8, it gave an error and exit, error was some sort of sector,
then i used hiren bootable cd and used its own partirion magic, that helped me to see all my partitions of 80G drives but without any drive letter. but just a star.
all my partitions are in ntfs.
i used testdisk and found all my data in there.
i guess my partition table is corrupted, now when i connect this 80G drive onto any ones PC and run partirion magic from running windows it shows a drive of about 80G and shows it as unallocated.
please help me recover my partition, my data is very valuable to me.
please.........!
