Personally I would look at the drive with something like Winhex and get the information from the 1st boot record or the backup boot record. From there just rewrite the partition table. Then the drive will be like it was and no data copying is needed.

Hey all, I have a client that just brought me a PC with a HD that appears to have no partitions on it (It shows up unallocated in XP). This was definitely a bootable volume previously. What program is best now'a'days to take a look and see if the data is recoverable? Unfortunately, the only info I have is that it suddenly stopped working :/ TIA, Julian _____________________________________ Julian Zottl CTO, Radiant Network Technology, LLC Getting ahead in the tech sector isn't about kissing butt ... you gotta sniff the right packets
