Ok...first question. Is this "partition" we're talking about on a seperate
drive from the one that contains your windows installation? I'm assuming,
of course, that this is the case. At any rate, if you can see the files
and the partition for that matter while running Mandrake then they're
still and haven't been deleted. And Linux hasn't moved them. For what ever
reason though Windows can no longer see this partition.
If you can move the files to another drive. Preferably the partition which
contains your Windows installation and we'll go from there.
