That partition had some very important data.. any chance that
there is away to restore it without deleting the data that was
inside completly?
Its the cause that is intresting me the most. Seems to have happened
while windows switch the MS-DOS 6.22 system files with MS-DOS 7's.
This is what gave me the idea that it could be the MBR..
Oh, and another thing: The BIOS cant auto-identify the harddisk anymore.
Luckly, I didnt saved after it didnt found it, so the old configuration
is still there, and it seems to work.
