Okay if i try to run chkdsk on this hard drives he says something like "this thing is so messed up i cant even scan it" and mbr repair says the same thing.
if i want to start windows with this hard drive plugged in windows says "hal.dll is corrupt.. please reinstall it you [censored]" :-P
Any ideas how to save my data =) it should be pretty easy my computer just doesnt know that its ntfs (i tried to recreate the partition with the windows setup which didnt worked out [since then the hal error appears too....])
crap, i used to know a bunch of free ones of these, since I used to do a lot of work on several friends computers and constantly was replacing operating systems (and then you always get the accidental wrong drive selection in fdisk) sorry i cant remember any of them.
Had same problem 4 weeks ago. MBR and MFT damaged, no booting up and no NTFS filesystem found. Used TestDisk ( linux tool, but should run on windows ) to check and repair. Worked great with NO data loss. Should be worth a try.
