I reinstalled 'xp pro' and for some strange reason, my slave drive..an NTFS
10 gig maxtor hd, which i unplugged during reinstallingg xp on the master,
well, it is now showing up (NOT in windows explorer as D) but in computer
management console, as a hard disk, with ''Unallocated Space''

I had put ALL my important ffiles on this Slave hdd, prior to reinstalling
the master, so i need the files recovering, badly.

I 'have' found a file recovery tool/app but it gets the files back in all
sorts of RAW form, and i don't have a clue where they are meant to be in
relation to the folders they were in.. eg. ''all the .bin' files are
together, all the jpegs together, etc.. not in the folders they were saved
as..

SO... does any1 know of a good file recovery app, that would get me back the
files in the folders they wre in, someone mentioned recover2000, but i
cannot find a copy. so any ideas please

All the Best - FRED
