O.K. here goes. I replaced my "System" Hardrive
1) I unplugged my old "Active" drive "H"
2) Plugged in my new drive.
3) Ran "Copy Commander" to image everything from drive "C" to the new drive "H".
4) At the same time it reassinged the drive letters & status. "C" "System" became "H" "Active" and "H" "Active" became "C" "System"
5) I remeved the old "C" drive and hooked the old "H" drive back up.
6) I know the old "H" drive was 200gigs. But now looking in the "Computer Managment" the top window shows it to be 128gigs. The lower window shows it as a partitioned drive 128gigs "Active" & 105gigs "Unallocated.
7) There is approximatly 170gigs of data on the drive.

I would really, really like to regain access to those files. If people can retreive data from crashed hardrives then there must be a way I can regain access to the files on a drive that has not crashed.

Please Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have a jpg of the "Computer Managment" screen if that would help but have no where to post it to link back to this thread :(

I thank you in advance for your help in this matter.
Sincerely, Skank

Do you have any boot CDs? Win PE Bart PE Linux?

Can you see them from there?

DO NOT USE THE OLD DISK IF YOU WANT ANY CHANCE OF RECOVERY!

Drop me a private message and I can get you some ISOs to you to try to recover.
