originally a couple of days ago i planned on reformatting. I have two hardrives. I have the 120 gig Master (C) with WINXP partition and WINXP installed and the 200 gig slave (D) with the partition magic partition of about 189. So I'm throwing on all my important documents onto the slave getting ready to reformat C with WinXP. As soon as everything is finished. I turned off the computer boot up with xp and i reformatted with both drives in there. Being cautious i chose the correct drive and formatted it Then when I was finshed WinXP recongized the slave but it said it was not formatted. The only thing it told me I could do was format it. So i try running partition magic as well and it didn't pick up on anything of what was there. I've ran some recovery programs which are a bit helpful but this is where you guys come in. If you can help me recover ALL of my files I would appriciate it.
thanks for your help
btw both drives were NTFS
