More Information

Sorry if this has been asked before, but a quick search didn't show anything.

I have a HD from a Dell comp, and somehow the boot volume got corrupted. So, I mounted it on an external hard drive enclosure, and it tells me my HD is unformatted. I used Testdisk to rewrite the partitions, and looking through the file list, it seems everything is nice and intact. The only problem is now, when I go to access the HD through My Computer, it takes me to the Dell recovery partition. How can I access the partition where all my stuff is? Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I can't figure it out.
