MUST Recover "ALL" Data on Disk2
DISK 2 PARTITION TABLE
__________________________________________________________________________
|__partition1______:_________partition2_____________:________partition3_____
________|
Just a moment ago I was using PartionMagic 8.0 to remove "partition3" from
disk2. After rebooting as requested by PM8 inorder for the changes to take
affect I recieved an error 3012 (found nothing relating to this error or any
similar one at www.powerquest.com . Upon recieving the error i was asked to
press any key and was then taken to the desktop to find the following
results.
RESULT:
- "partition3" gone as planned
- "partition2" nologer showing in explorer or disk management.
1. CHKDSK = Error messge "Cannot open
volume for direct access."
2. RECOVER = Error messge "Cannot
determine file system of drive "partition2" ".
- "partition1"
1. CHKDSK = Error messge "The type of
the file system is RAW. CHKDSK is not available for RAW drives."
2. RECOVER = Error messge "The type of
the file system is RAW. RECOVER is not available for RAW drives."
I have since then rebooted once again in a feeble hope that the partition
table might correct itself but this would be to easy of a solution to hope
for and failed to work. I beleive I dont have to worry about the data being
over writtten at any time since the pagefile and other similar system
operations are not located on this drive. I am in dier need of a way to
recover the lost data and could use any and all solutions.

In the future you should always have back-ups of important data,
especially before doing something as radical as modifying the
partition table.

If you don't get the help needed here, contact Partition Magic support.

Michael Stevens - Partition Magic is owned by Symantec now and I cant seem
to find a solution on there site or any support other then there database
which like i said has no solution for my error.

Good thing you backed up your data before messing with your partitions.
Or perhaps you didn't read the docs first?
