Hello,

Windows Data partition with all my partition is showing blank in the disk managment and I am not able to change the drive letter http://www.sevenforums.com/attachments/installation-setup/199766d1379307898t-help-partition-not-showing-up-my-computer-capture.png.

Please help, all my data is there. Reason for the problem. During Windows update, I had many other programs open and the sytem ran out of memory and crashed. On re boot, I showed boot manager missing. I was able to repair the boot manager problem with windows repair and get windows to boot but now having this drive issue. Also my linux (its a dual boot system), is not showing at all and the drive is also missing or have been merged with the recovery partition. Please help!

thank you very much

Try a third party program like partition master, partition manager, gparted, etc. They can find the partitions that windows can't see. You might have to reboot a couple of times after using them to have all partitions show up correctly depending upon how many partitions you have.
