You're lucky to have chosen FAT32- much easier to recover. I recovered data from my HD successfully after loosing MBR, corrupting partition table, etc. It works unless data was OVERWRITTEN http://www.runtime.org/gdb.htm

If you have only one partition per HD, than you are right. If you have more than one partition per HD, then I'm right

the problem you have is not with the letter but with the partition number. I had the same issue. When you format your hard drive, partition 1 gets the letter "c", partition 2 gets the letter d, and so forth. by default operation system files go to partition 1. change letters all you...

FNDH, you are right about My Documents - these are usually the files you want first. My dead drive was FAT, I wanted to swithch to NTFS for a new installation. How can you change file permissions settings in NTFS to simplify recovery, should the need arise?

Hi all! Thanks for the posts. I have to mention 3 things: 1) chkdsk /r dows not work - Unrecoverable error message. 2) I installed OnTrack Syste Suite 4.0 - this is how my problem started. The series of tests form OnTrack damaged my files. I found out some of .bmp I created have been smudged...

There is a better answer, arrs. Right-click on My Computer, select "properties". Select tab "Advanced". Click on "Settings" in "Startup and recovery" box. Uncheck "Automatically restart" option in the "System failure" box. Next time...

Yep. That is right. I used GetDataBack and copies some of my files to the second HDD. However, using a new WinXP insatllation on the second HDD, I can only access 10MB of my original HDD.

I have teh same problem and "CHKDSK c: /scan" gave me "Unrecoverable error message. I tried FIXBOOT, but still wouldn't start. I got a second HDD and installed WinXP on it. QUESTION: How Can i transfer data files form my old HDD to a new one? Teh old has 40 gig, but it reads as 10...

Yet a better thought: If anyone has a problem with video card or any other drivers, PLS list here your hardware spex. I have Radeon VE, and from what I gather, ATI dropped the ball on drivers support for WinXP. Any other known offenders?

OK! Learn from my tough luck: Before turning your ACPI PC into Standard PC, make a copy of your folder: C:\windows\system32\config. Then make a bootable disk. If you FCUK UP, like I did, and you PC wouldn't start, use a floppy to boot into DOS, and copy command C:\windows\system32\config from...

Trying ot fix this problem I got into a bigger one. I Opended ControlPanel=>System=>MyComputer, updated driver form ACPI Compliant to Standard PC. Then rebppded and disabled PnP and ACPI settings in BIOS. NOw my system displayed TWO COMPUTERS under MyComputer: one of them had an option to...

I don't know if this would be relevant to you, but I did a "google" search on a similar subject. I found an article in MSDN library titled "plan for null responses in your parameter queries." I don't have exact web site or an article number but these came up with in top ten...

Another cause is if you have calculated field where something is divided by somethingElse. Check that your denominators are not equal to zero.

Thanks, strongm! Does "m" stand for "Mike"? I worked with Mike Strong from MIS a coupple years ago. Does "WLDC" ring any bell? In any event, look forward to your reply. Dmitry

Pardon a newbie's question, but how exactly do you get a Timer into invisible form?
